We have the following indirect implication of form equivalence classes:
			
| Implication | Reference | 
|---|---|
| 259 \(\Rightarrow\) 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 \(\Rightarrow\) 337 | Non-constructive properties of the real numbers, Howard,  P. 2001, Math. Logic Quart. | 
| 337 \(\Rightarrow\) 92 | clear | 
| 92 \(\Rightarrow\) 94 | clear | 
| 94 \(\Rightarrow\) 5 | clear | 
Here are the links and statements of the form equivalence classes referenced above:
| Howard-Rubin Number | Statement | 
|---|---|
| 259: | \(Z(TR\&C,W)\): If \((X,R)\) is a transitive and connected relation in which every well ordered subset has an upper bound, then \((X,R)\) has a maximal element. | 
| 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. | 
| 5: | \(C(\aleph_0,\aleph_0,\Bbb R)\): Every denumerable set of non-empty denumerable subsets of \({\Bbb R}\) has a choice function. |
