Axiom Of Choice

We have the following indirect implication of form equivalence classes:

109 \(\Rightarrow\) 125 given by the following sequence of implications, with a reference to its direct proof:

Implication	Reference
109 \(\Rightarrow\) 66	clear
66 \(\Rightarrow\) 67	Existence of a basis implies the axiom of choice, Blass, A. 1984a, Contemporary Mathematics
67 \(\Rightarrow\) 144	Axioms of multiple choice, Levy, A. 1962, Fund. Math.
144 \(\Rightarrow\) 125	P-Raüme and Auswahlaxiom, Brunner, N. 1984c, Rend. Circ. Mat. Palermo.

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).
144:	Every set is almost well orderable.
125:	There does not exist an infinite, compact connected \(p\) space. (A \(p\) space is a \(T_2\) space in which the intersection of any well orderable family of open sets is open.)
