Implications

We have the following indirect implication of form equivalence classes:

66 \(\Rightarrow\) 94
given by the following sequence of implications, with a reference to its direct proof:

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

51 \(\Rightarrow\) 337 Non-constructive properties of the real numbers, Howard, P. 2001, Math. Logic Quart.
337 \(\Rightarrow\) 92 clear
92 \(\Rightarrow\) 94 clear

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

Howard-Rubin Number Statement
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.

51:

Cofinality Principle: Every linear ordering has a cofinal sub well ordering.  Sierpi\'nski [1918], p 117.

337:

\(C(WO\), uniformly linearly ordered):  If \(X\) is a well ordered collection of non-empty sets and there is a function \(f\) defined on \(X\) such that for every \(x\in X\), \(f(x)\) is a linear ordering of \(x\), then there is a choice function for \(X\).

92:

\(C(WO,{\Bbb R})\):  Every well ordered family of non-empty subsets of \({\Bbb R}\) has a choice function.

94:

\(C(\aleph_{0},\infty,{\Bbb R})\): Every denumerable family of non-empty sets of reals  has a choice function. Jech [1973b], p 148 prob 10.1.
