Axiom Of Choice

We have the following indirect implication of form equivalence classes:

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

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

Howard-Rubin Number	Statement
149:	\(A(F)\): Every \(T_2\) topological space is a continuous, finite to one image of an \(A1\) space.
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.
