Statement:

\(DC(\aleph_{\alpha})\): Given a relation \(R\) such that for every subset \(Y\) of a set \(X\) with \(|Y|<\aleph_{\alpha}\), there is an \(x\in X\) with \(Y\mathrel R x\) then there is a function \(f:\aleph_{\alpha}\to X\) such that (\(\forall\beta < \aleph_{\alpha}\)) \(\{f(\gamma): \gamma < \beta\}\mathrel R f(\beta)\).

87A-alpha

\(Z_{\aleph_{\alpha }}\): Let \(P\) be a partially ordered set in which every well ordered chain has type \(< \aleph_{\alpha}\). If every well ordered chain in \(P\) has an upper bound in \(P\), then \(P\) contains a maximal element.

Wolk [1983]

87B-alpha

\(Z^{*}_{\aleph_{\alpha}}\): Let \(P\) be a well-founded partially ordered set (that is, every chain in \(P\) is well ordered.) in which every chain has type \(< \aleph_{\alpha}\). If every chain in \(P\) has an upper bound in \(P\), then \(P\) contains a maximal element.
