Independence results for class forms of the axiom of choice

Paul Howard, Arthur L. Rubin, Jean E. Rubin

Open publisher page 7 citations

Abstract

Abstract Let NBG be von Neumann-Bemays-Gödel set theory without the axiom of choice and let NBGA be the modification which allows atoms. In this paper we consider some of the well-known class or global forms of the wellordering theorem, the axiom of choice, and maximal principles which are known to be equivalent in NBG and show they are not equivalent in NBGA.
