Axiom Of Choice

We have the following indirect implication of form equivalence classes:

109 \(\Rightarrow\) 361 given by the following sequence of implications, with a reference to its direct proof:

109 \(\Rightarrow\) 66	clear
66 \(\Rightarrow\) 67	Existence of a basis implies the axiom of choice, Blass, A. 1984a, Contemporary Mathematics
67 \(\Rightarrow\) 89	On cardinals and their successors, Jech, T. 1966a, Bull. Acad. Polon. Sci. S'er. Sci. Math. Astronom. Phys.
89 \(\Rightarrow\) 90	The Axiom of Choice, Jech, 1973b, page 133

91 \(\Rightarrow\) 361	Equivalents of the Axiom of Choice II, Rubin, 1985, theorem 5.7

Here are the links and statements of the form equivalence classes referenced above:

Howard-Rubin Number	Statement
109:	Every field \(F\) and every vector space \(V\) over \(F\) has the property that each linearly independent set \(A\subseteq V\) can be extended to a basis. H.Rubin/J.~Rubin [1985], pp 119ff.
66:	Every vector space over a field has a basis.
67:	\(MC(\infty,\infty)\) \((MC)\), The Axiom of Multiple Choice: For every set \(M\) of non-empty sets there is a function \(f\) such that \((\forall x\in M)(\emptyset\neq f(x)\subseteq x\) and \(f(x)\) is finite).
89:	Antichain Principle: Every partially ordered set has a maximal antichain. Jech [1973b], p 133.
90:	\(LW\): Every linearly ordered set can be well ordered. Jech [1973b], p 133.
91:	\(PW\): The power set of a well ordered set can be well ordered.
361:	In \(\Bbb R\), the union of a denumerable number of analytic sets is analytic. G. Moore [1982], pp 181 and 325.
