Hypothesis: HR 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 \(x\equiv y\leftrightarrow(\exists q\in {\Bbb Q})(x-y=q)\).

Conclusion: HR 318:

\(\aleph_1\) is not measurable.

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

Name Statement
\(\cal M5(\aleph)\) Solovay's Model An inaccessible cardinal \(\aleph\) is collapsed to \(\aleph_1\) in the outer model and then \(\cal M5(\aleph)\) is the smallest model containing the ordinals and \(\Bbb R\)

Code: 3
