Axiom Of Choice

We have the following indirect implication of form equivalence classes:

90 \(\Rightarrow\) 289 given by the following sequence of implications, with a reference to its direct proof:

Implication	Reference
90 \(\Rightarrow\) 91	The Axiom of Choice, Jech, 1973b, page 133
91 \(\Rightarrow\) 79	clear
79 \(\Rightarrow\) 289	clear

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

Howard-Rubin Number	Statement
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.
79:	\({\Bbb R}\) can be well ordered. Hilbert [1900], p 263.
289:	If \(S\) is a set of subsets of a countable set and \(S\) is closed under chain unions, then \(S\) has a \(\subseteq\)-maximal element.
