Axiom Of Choice

We have the following indirect implication of form equivalence classes:

89 \(\Rightarrow\) 315 given by the following sequence of implications, with a reference to its direct proof:

Implication	Reference
89 \(\Rightarrow\) 90	The Axiom of Choice, Jech, 1973b, page 133
90 \(\Rightarrow\) 51	Variations of Zorn's lemma, principles of cofinality, and Hausdorff's maximal principle, Part I and II, Harper, J. 1976, Notre Dame J. Formal Logic
51 \(\Rightarrow\) 25	Choice and cofinal well-ordered subsets, Morris, D.B. 1969, Notices Amer. Math. Soc.
25 \(\Rightarrow\) 315	clear

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

Howard-Rubin Number	Statement
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.
25:	\(\aleph _{\beta +1}\) is regular for all ordinals \(\beta\).
315:	\(\Omega = \omega_1\), where \(\Omega = \{\alpha\in\hbox{ On}: (\forall\beta\le\alpha)(\beta=0 \vee (\exists\gamma)(\beta=\gamma+1) \vee\) there is a sequence \(\langle\gamma_n: n\in\omega\rangle\) such that for each \(n\), \(\gamma_n<\beta\hbox{ and } \beta=\bigcup_{n<\omega}\gamma_n.)\} \)
