Hypothesis: HR 313:

\(\Bbb Z\) (the set of integers under addition) is amenable.  (\(G\) is {\it amenable} if there is a finitely additive measure \(\mu\) on \(\cal P(G)\) such that \(\mu(G) = 1\) and \(\forall A\subseteq G, \forall g\in G\), \(\mu(gA)=\mu(A)\).)

Conclusion: HR 349:

\(MC(\infty,\aleph_0)\): For every set \(X\) of non-empty denumerable sets there is a function \(f\) such that for all \(x\in X\), \(f(x)\) is a finite, non-empty subset of \(x\).

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

Name Statement
\(\cal N33\) Howard/H\.Rubin/J\.Rubin Model \(A\) is countably infinite;\(\precsim\) is a dense linear ordering on \(A\) without first or lastelements (\((A,\precsim) \cong (\Bbb Q,\le)\)); \(\cal G\) is the group of allorder automorphisms on \((A,\precsim)\); and \(S\) is the set of all boundedsubsets of \(A\)
\(\cal N41\) Another variation of \(\cal N3\) \(A=\bigcup\{B_n; n\in\omega\}\)is a disjoint union, where each \(B_n\) is denumerable and ordered like therationals by \(\le_n\)
