Hypothesis: HR 52:

Hahn-Banach Theorem:  If \(V\) is a real vector space and \(p: V \rightarrow {\Bbb R}\) satisfies \(p(x+y) \le p(x) + p(y)\) and \((\forall t > 0)( p(tx) = tp(x) )\) and \(S\) is a subspace of \(V\) and \(f:S \rightarrow {\Bbb R}\) is linear and satisfies \((\forall  x \in S)( f(x) \le  p(x) )\) then \(f\) can be extended to \(f^{*} : V \rightarrow {\Bbb R}\) such that \(f^{*}\) is linear and \((\forall x \in V)(f^{*}(x) \le p(x))\).

Conclusion: HR 216:

Every infinite tree has either an infinite chain or an infinite antichain.

List of models where hypothesis is true and the conclusion is false:

Name Statement
\(\cal N2\) The Second Fraenkel Model The set of atoms \(A=\{a_i : i\in\omega\}\) is partitioned into two element sets \(B =\{\{a_{2i},a_{2i+1}\} : i\in\omega\}\). \(\mathcal G \) is the group of all permutations of \( A \) that leave \( B \) pointwise fixed and \( S \) is the set of all finite subsets of \( A \).
