We have the following indirect implication of form equivalence classes:
| Implication | Reference |
|---|---|
| 393 \(\Rightarrow\) 165 | clear |
| 165 \(\Rightarrow\) 32 | clear |
| 32 \(\Rightarrow\) 5 | clear |
| 5 \(\Rightarrow\) 38 |
Non-constructive properties of the real numbers, Howard, P. 2001, Math. Logic Quart. |
| 38 \(\Rightarrow\) 108 | clear |
Here are the links and statements of the form equivalence classes referenced above:
| Howard-Rubin Number | Statement |
|---|---|
| 393: | \(C(LO,WO)\): Every linearly ordered set of non-empty well orderable sets has a choice function. |
| 165: | \(C(WO,WO)\): Every well ordered family of non-empty, well orderable sets has a choice function. |
| 32: | \(C(\aleph_0,\le\aleph_0)\): Every denumerable set of non-empty countable sets has a choice function. |
| 5: | \(C(\aleph_0,\aleph_0,\Bbb R)\): Every denumerable set of non-empty denumerable subsets of \({\Bbb R}\) has a choice function. |
| 38: | \({\Bbb R}\) is not the union of a countable family of countable sets. |
| 108: | There is an ordinal \(\alpha\) such that \(2^{\aleph _{\alpha}}\) is not the union of a denumerable set of denumerable sets. |
