Axiom Of Choice

We have the following indirect implication of form equivalence classes:

391 \(\Rightarrow\) 307 given by the following sequence of implications, with a reference to its direct proof:

391 \(\Rightarrow\) 112	clear
112 \(\Rightarrow\) 90	Equivalents of the Axiom of Choice II, Rubin/Rubin, 1985, page 79

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

Howard-Rubin Number	Statement
391:	\(C(\infty,LO)\): Every set of non-empty linearly orderable sets has a choice function.
112:	\(MC(\infty,LO)\): For every family \(X\) of non-empty sets each of which can be linearly ordered there is a function \(f\) such that for all \(y\in X\), \(f(y)\) is a non-empty finite subset of \(y\).
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.
305:	There are \(2^{\aleph_0}\) Vitali equivalence classes. (Vitali equivalence classes are equivalence classes of the real numbers under the relation \(x\equiv y\leftrightarrow(\exists q\in{\Bbb Q})(x-y=q)\).). \ac{Kanovei} \cite{1991}.
307:	If \(m\) is the cardinality of the set of Vitali equivalence classes, then \(H(m) = H(2^{\aleph_0})\), where \(H\) is Hartogs aleph function and the {\it Vitali equivalence classes} are equivalence classes of the real numbers under the relation \(x\equiv y\leftrightarrow(\exists q\in {\Bbb Q})(x-y=q)\).
