The proof is that of Randall Holmes at http://math.boisestate.edu/~holmes/holmes/hereditary.pdf, with modifications to use Hartogs' theorem instead of the weak variant (inconsequentially weakening some intermediate results), and making the well-foundedness condition explicit to avoid a direct dependence on ax-reg 8380.

PART 3  ZFC (ZERMELO-FRAENKEL WITH CHOICE) SET THEORY In this section we add the Axiom of Choice ax-ac 9164, as well as weaker forms such as the axiom of countable choice ax-cc 9140 and dependent choice ax-dc 9151. We introduce these weaker forms so that theorems that do not need the full power of the axiom of choice, but need more than simple ZF, can use these intermediate axioms instead. The combination of the Zermelo-Fraenkel axioms and the axiom of choice is often abbreviated as ZFC. The axiom of choice is widely accepted, and ZFC is the most commonly-accepted fundamental set of axioms for mathematics. However, there have been and still are some lingering controversies about the Axiom of Choice. The axiom of choice does not satisfy those who wish to have a constructive proof (e.g., it will not satisfy intuitionistic logic). Thus, we make it easy to identify which proofs depend on the axiom of choice or its weaker forms.
3.1  ZFC Set Theory - add Countable Choice and Dependent Choice
3.1.1  Introduce the Axiom of Countable Choice
Axiom	ax-cc 9140*	The axiom of countable choice (CC), also known as the axiom of denumerable choice. It is clearly a special case of ac5 9182, but is weak enough that it can be proven using DC (see axcc 9163). It is, however, strictly stronger than ZF and cannot be proven in ZF. It states that any countable collection of nonempty sets must have a choice function. (Contributed by Mario Carneiro, 9-Feb-2013.)
⊢ (𝑥 ≈ ω → ∃𝑓∀𝑧 ∈ 𝑥 (𝑧 ≠ ∅ → (𝑓‘𝑧) ∈ 𝑧))
Theorem	axcc2lem 9141*	Lemma for axcc2 9142. (Contributed by Mario Carneiro, 8-Feb-2013.)
⊢ 𝐾 = (𝑛 ∈ ω ↦ if((𝐹‘𝑛) = ∅, {∅}, (𝐹‘𝑛)))    &   ⊢ 𝐴 = (𝑛 ∈ ω ↦ ({𝑛} × (𝐾‘𝑛)))    &   ⊢ 𝐺 = (𝑛 ∈ ω ↦ (2nd ‘(𝑓‘(𝐴‘𝑛))))    ⇒   ⊢ ∃𝑔(𝑔 Fn ω ∧ ∀𝑛 ∈ ω ((𝐹‘𝑛) ≠ ∅ → (𝑔‘𝑛) ∈ (𝐹‘𝑛)))
Theorem	axcc2 9142*	A possibly more useful version of ax-cc using sequences instead of countable sets. The Axiom of Infinity is needed to prove this, and indeed this implies the Axiom of Infinity. (Contributed by Mario Carneiro, 8-Feb-2013.)
⊢ ∃𝑔(𝑔 Fn ω ∧ ∀𝑛 ∈ ω ((𝐹‘𝑛) ≠ ∅ → (𝑔‘𝑛) ∈ (𝐹‘𝑛)))
Theorem	axcc3 9143*	A possibly more useful version of ax-cc 9140 using sequences 𝐹(𝑛) instead of countable sets. The Axiom of Infinity is needed to prove this, and indeed this implies the Axiom of Infinity. (Contributed by Mario Carneiro, 8-Feb-2013.) (Revised by Mario Carneiro, 26-Dec-2014.)
⊢ 𝐹 ∈ V    &   ⊢ 𝑁 ≈ ω    ⇒   ⊢ ∃𝑓(𝑓 Fn 𝑁 ∧ ∀𝑛 ∈ 𝑁 (𝐹 ≠ ∅ → (𝑓‘𝑛) ∈ 𝐹))
Theorem	axcc4 9144*	A version of axcc3 9143 that uses wffs instead of classes. (Contributed by Mario Carneiro, 7-Apr-2013.)
⊢ 𝐴 ∈ V    &   ⊢ 𝑁 ≈ ω    &   ⊢ (𝑥 = (𝑓‘𝑛) → (𝜑 ↔ 𝜓))    ⇒   ⊢ (∀𝑛 ∈ 𝑁 ∃𝑥 ∈ 𝐴 𝜑 → ∃𝑓(𝑓:𝑁⟶𝐴 ∧ ∀𝑛 ∈ 𝑁 𝜓))
Theorem	acncc 9145	An ax-cc 9140 equivalent: every set has choice sets of length ω. (Contributed by Mario Carneiro, 31-Aug-2015.)
⊢ AC ω = V
Theorem	axcc4dom 9146*	Relax the constraint on axcc4 9144 to dominance instead of equinumerosity. (Contributed by Mario Carneiro, 18-Jan-2014.)
⊢ 𝐴 ∈ V    &   ⊢ (𝑥 = (𝑓‘𝑛) → (𝜑 ↔ 𝜓))    ⇒   ⊢ ((𝑁 ≼ ω ∧ ∀𝑛 ∈ 𝑁 ∃𝑥 ∈ 𝐴 𝜑) → ∃𝑓(𝑓:𝑁⟶𝐴 ∧ ∀𝑛 ∈ 𝑁 𝜓))
Theorem	domtriomlem 9147*	Lemma for domtriom 9148. (Contributed by Mario Carneiro, 9-Feb-2013.)
⊢ 𝐴 ∈ V    &   ⊢ 𝐵 = {𝑦 ∣ (𝑦 ⊆ 𝐴 ∧ 𝑦 ≈ 𝒫 𝑛)}    &   ⊢ 𝐶 = (𝑛 ∈ ω ↦ ((𝑏‘𝑛) ∖ ∪ 𝑘 ∈ 𝑛 (𝑏‘𝑘)))    ⇒   ⊢ (¬ 𝐴 ∈ Fin → ω ≼ 𝐴)
Theorem	domtriom 9148	Trichotomy of equinumerosity for ω, proven using CC. Equivalently, all Dedekind-finite sets (as in isfin4-2 9019) are finite in the usual sense and conversely. (Contributed by Mario Carneiro, 9-Feb-2013.)
⊢ 𝐴 ∈ V    ⇒   ⊢ (ω ≼ 𝐴 ↔ ¬ 𝐴 ≺ ω)
Theorem	fin41 9149	Under countable choice, the IV-finite sets (Dedekind-finite) coincide with I-finite (finite in the usual sense) sets. (Contributed by Mario Carneiro, 16-May-2015.)
⊢ FinIV = Fin
Theorem	dominf 9150	A nonempty set that is a subset of its union is infinite. This version is proved from ax-cc 9140. See dominfac 9274 for a version proved from ax-ac 9164. The axiom of Regularity is used for this proof, via inf3lem6 8413, and its use is necessary: otherwise the set 𝐴 = {𝐴} or 𝐴 = {∅, 𝐴} (where the second example even has nonempty well-founded part) provides a counterexample. (Contributed by Mario Carneiro, 9-Feb-2013.)
⊢ 𝐴 ∈ V    ⇒   ⊢ ((𝐴 ≠ ∅ ∧ 𝐴 ⊆ ∪ 𝐴) → ω ≼ 𝐴)
3.1.2  Introduce the Axiom of Dependent Choice
Axiom	ax-dc 9151*	Dependent Choice. Axiom DC1 of [Schechter] p. 149. This theorem is weaker than the Axiom of Choice but is stronger than Countable Choice. It shows the existence of a sequence whose values can only be shown to exist (but cannot be constructed explicitly) and also depend on earlier values in the sequence. Dependent choice is equivalent to the statement that every (nonempty) pruned tree has a branch. This axiom is redundant in ZFC; see axdc 9226. But ZF+DC is strictly weaker than ZF+AC, so this axiom provides for theorems that do not need the full power of AC. (Contributed by Mario Carneiro, 25-Jan-2013.)
⊢ ((∃𝑦∃𝑧 𝑦𝑥𝑧 ∧ ran 𝑥 ⊆ dom 𝑥) → ∃𝑓∀𝑛 ∈ ω (𝑓‘𝑛)𝑥(𝑓‘suc 𝑛))
Theorem	dcomex 9152	The Axiom of Dependent Choice implies Infinity, the way we have stated it. Thus, we have Inf+AC implies DC and DC implies Inf, but AC does not imply Inf. (Contributed by Mario Carneiro, 25-Jan-2013.)
⊢ ω ∈ V
Theorem	axdc2lem 9153*	Lemma for axdc2 9154. We construct a relation 𝑅 based on 𝐹 such that 𝑥𝑅𝑦 iff 𝑦 ∈ (𝐹‘𝑥), and show that the "function" described by ax-dc 9151 can be restricted so that it is a real function (since the stated properties only show that it is the superset of a function). (Contributed by Mario Carneiro, 25-Jan-2013.) (Revised by Mario Carneiro, 26-Jun-2015.)
⊢ 𝐴 ∈ V    &   ⊢ 𝑅 = {⟨𝑥, 𝑦⟩ ∣ (𝑥 ∈ 𝐴 ∧ 𝑦 ∈ (𝐹‘𝑥))}    &   ⊢ 𝐺 = (𝑥 ∈ ω ↦ (ℎ‘𝑥))    ⇒   ⊢ ((𝐴 ≠ ∅ ∧ 𝐹:𝐴⟶(𝒫 𝐴 ∖ {∅})) → ∃𝑔(𝑔:ω⟶𝐴 ∧ ∀𝑘 ∈ ω (𝑔‘suc 𝑘) ∈ (𝐹‘(𝑔‘𝑘))))
Theorem	axdc2 9154*	An apparent strengthening of ax-dc 9151 (but derived from it) which shows that there is a denumerable sequence 𝑔 for any function that maps elements of a set 𝐴 to nonempty subsets of 𝐴 such that 𝑔(𝑥 + 1) ∈ 𝐹(𝑔(𝑥)) for all 𝑥 ∈ ω. The finitistic version of this can be proven by induction, but the infinite version requires this new axiom. (Contributed by Mario Carneiro, 25-Jan-2013.)
⊢ 𝐴 ∈ V    ⇒   ⊢ ((𝐴 ≠ ∅ ∧ 𝐹:𝐴⟶(𝒫 𝐴 ∖ {∅})) → ∃𝑔(𝑔:ω⟶𝐴 ∧ ∀𝑘 ∈ ω (𝑔‘suc 𝑘) ∈ (𝐹‘(𝑔‘𝑘))))
Theorem	axdc3lem 9155*	The class 𝑆 of finite approximations to the DC sequence is a set. (We derive here the stronger statement that 𝑆 is a subset of a specific set, namely 𝒫 (ω × 𝐴).) (Unnecessary distinct variable restrictions were removed by David Abernethy, 18-Mar-2014.) (Contributed by Mario Carneiro, 27-Jan-2013.) (Revised by Mario Carneiro, 18-Mar-2014.)
⊢ 𝐴 ∈ V    &   ⊢ 𝑆 = {𝑠 ∣ ∃𝑛 ∈ ω (𝑠:suc 𝑛⟶𝐴 ∧ (𝑠‘∅) = 𝐶 ∧ ∀𝑘 ∈ 𝑛 (𝑠‘suc 𝑘) ∈ (𝐹‘(𝑠‘𝑘)))}    ⇒   ⊢ 𝑆 ∈ V
Theorem	axdc3lem2 9156*	Lemma for axdc3 9159. We have constructed a "candidate set" 𝑆, which consists of all finite sequences 𝑠 that satisfy our property of interest, namely 𝑠(𝑥 + 1) ∈ 𝐹(𝑠(𝑥)) on its domain, but with the added constraint that 𝑠(0) = 𝐶. These sets are possible "initial segments" of the infinite sequence satisfying these constraints, but we can leverage the standard ax-dc 9151 (with no initial condition) to select a sequence of ever-lengthening finite sequences, namely (ℎ‘𝑛):𝑚⟶𝐴 (for some integer 𝑚). We let our "choice" function select a sequence whose domain is one more than the last one, and agrees with the previous one on its domain. Thus, the application of vanilla ax-dc 9151 yields a sequence of sequences whose domains increase without bound, and whose union is a function which has all the properties we want. In this lemma, we show that given the sequence ℎ, we can construct the sequence 𝑔 that we are after. (Contributed by Mario Carneiro, 30-Jan-2013.)
⊢ 𝐴 ∈ V    &   ⊢ 𝑆 = {𝑠 ∣ ∃𝑛 ∈ ω (𝑠:suc 𝑛⟶𝐴 ∧ (𝑠‘∅) = 𝐶 ∧ ∀𝑘 ∈ 𝑛 (𝑠‘suc 𝑘) ∈ (𝐹‘(𝑠‘𝑘)))}    &   ⊢ 𝐺 = (𝑥 ∈ 𝑆 ↦ {𝑦 ∈ 𝑆 ∣ (dom 𝑦 = suc dom 𝑥 ∧ (𝑦 ↾ dom 𝑥) = 𝑥)})    ⇒   ⊢ (∃ℎ(ℎ:ω⟶𝑆 ∧ ∀𝑘 ∈ ω (ℎ‘suc 𝑘) ∈ (𝐺‘(ℎ‘𝑘))) → ∃𝑔(𝑔:ω⟶𝐴 ∧ (𝑔‘∅) = 𝐶 ∧ ∀𝑘 ∈ ω (𝑔‘suc 𝑘) ∈ (𝐹‘(𝑔‘𝑘))))
Theorem	axdc3lem3 9157*	Simple substitution lemma for axdc3 9159. (Contributed by Mario Carneiro, 27-Jan-2013.)
⊢ 𝐴 ∈ V    &   ⊢ 𝑆 = {𝑠 ∣ ∃𝑛 ∈ ω (𝑠:suc 𝑛⟶𝐴 ∧ (𝑠‘∅) = 𝐶 ∧ ∀𝑘 ∈ 𝑛 (𝑠‘suc 𝑘) ∈ (𝐹‘(𝑠‘𝑘)))}    &   ⊢ 𝐵 ∈ V    ⇒   ⊢ (𝐵 ∈ 𝑆 ↔ ∃𝑚 ∈ ω (𝐵:suc 𝑚⟶𝐴 ∧ (𝐵‘∅) = 𝐶 ∧ ∀𝑘 ∈ 𝑚 (𝐵‘suc 𝑘) ∈ (𝐹‘(𝐵‘𝑘))))
Theorem	axdc3lem4 9158*	Lemma for axdc3 9159. We have constructed a "candidate set" 𝑆, which consists of all finite sequences 𝑠 that satisfy our property of interest, namely 𝑠(𝑥 + 1) ∈ 𝐹(𝑠(𝑥)) on its domain, but with the added constraint that 𝑠(0) = 𝐶. These sets are possible "initial segments" of the infinite sequence satisfying these constraints, but we can leverage the standard ax-dc 9151 (with no initial condition) to select a sequence of ever-lengthening finite sequences, namely (ℎ‘𝑛):𝑚⟶𝐴 (for some integer 𝑚). We let our "choice" function select a sequence whose domain is one more than the last one, and agrees with the previous one on its domain. Thus, the application of vanilla ax-dc 9151 yields a sequence of sequences whose domains increase without bound, and whose union is a function which has all the properties we want. In this lemma, we show that 𝑆 is nonempty, and that 𝐺 always maps to a nonempty subset of 𝑆, so that we can apply axdc2 9154. See axdc3lem2 9156 for the rest of the proof.

3.2  ZFC Set Theory - add the Axiom of Choice
3.2.1  Introduce the Axiom of Choice
Axiom	ax-ac 9164*	Axiom of Choice. The Axiom of Choice (AC) is usually considered an extension of ZF set theory rather than a proper part of it. It is sometimes considered philosophically controversial because it asserts the existence of a set without telling us what the set is. ZF set theory that includes AC is called ZFC. The unpublished version given here says that given any set 𝑥, there exists a 𝑦 that is a collection of unordered pairs, one pair for each nonempty member of 𝑥. One entry in the pair is the member of 𝑥, and the other entry is some arbitrary member of that member of 𝑥. See the rewritten version ac3 9167 for a more detailed explanation. Theorem ac2 9166 shows an equivalent written compactly with restricted quantifiers. This version was specifically crafted to be short when expanded to primitives. Kurt Maes' 5-quantifier version ackm 9170 is slightly shorter when the biconditional of ax-ac 9164 is expanded into implication and negation. In axac3 9169 we allow the constant CHOICE to represent the Axiom of Choice; this simplifies the representation of theorems like gchac 9382 (the Generalized Continuum Hypothesis implies the Axiom of Choice). Standard textbook versions of AC are derived as ac8 9197, ac5 9182, and ac7 9178. The Axiom of Regularity ax-reg 8380 (among others) is used to derive our version from the standard ones; this reverse derivation is shown as theorem dfac2 8836. Equivalents to AC are the well-ordering theorem weth 9200 and Zorn's lemma zorn 9212. See ac4 9180 for comments about stronger versions of AC. In order to avoid uses of ax-reg 8380 for derivation of AC equivalents, we provide ax-ac2 9168 (due to Kurt Maes), which is equivalent to the standard AC of textbooks. The derivation of ax-ac2 9168 from ax-ac 9164 is shown by theorem axac2 9171, and the reverse derivation by axac 9172. Therefore, new proofs should normally use ax-ac2 9168 instead. (New usage is discouraged.) (Contributed by NM, 18-Jul-1996.)

Theorem	ac2 9166*	Axiom of Choice equivalent. By using restricted quantifiers, we can express the Axiom of Choice with a single explicit conjunction. (If you want to figure it out, the rewritten equivalent ac3 9167 is easier to understand.) Note: aceq0 8824 shows the logical equivalence to ax-ac 9164. (New usage is discouraged.) (Contributed by NM, 18-Jul-1996.)
⊢ ∃𝑦∀𝑧 ∈ 𝑥 ∀𝑤 ∈ 𝑧 ∃!𝑣 ∈ 𝑧 ∃𝑢 ∈ 𝑦 (𝑧 ∈ 𝑢 ∧ 𝑣 ∈ 𝑢)
Theorem	ac3 9167*	Axiom of Choice using abbreviations. The logical equivalence to ax-ac 9164 can be established by chaining aceq0 8824 and aceq2 8825. A standard textbook version of AC is derived from this one in dfac2a 8835, and this version of AC is derived from the textbook version in dfac2 8836. The following sketch will help you understand this version of the axiom. Given any set 𝑥, the axiom says that there exists a 𝑦 that is a collection of unordered pairs, one pair for each nonempty member of 𝑥. One entry in the pair is the member of 𝑥, and the other entry is some arbitrary member of that member of 𝑥. Using the Axiom of Regularity, we can show that 𝑦 is really a set of ordered pairs, very similar to the ordered pair construction opthreg 8398. The key theorem for this (used in the proof of dfac2 8836) is preleq 8397. With this modified definition of ordered pair, it can be seen that 𝑦 is actually a choice function on the members of 𝑥. For example, suppose 𝑥 = {{1, 2}, {1, 3}, {2, 3, 4}}. Let us try 𝑦 = {{{1, 2}, 1}, {{1, 3}, 1}, {{2, 3, 4}, 2}}. For the member (of 𝑥) 𝑧 = {1, 2}, the only assignment to 𝑤 and 𝑣 that satisfies the axiom is 𝑤 = 1 and 𝑣 = {{1, 2}, 1}, so there is exactly one 𝑤 as required. We verify the other two members of 𝑥 similarly. Thus, 𝑦 satisfies the axiom. Using our modified ordered pair definition, we can say that 𝑦 corresponds to the choice function {⟨{1, 2}, 1⟩, ⟨{1, 3}, 1⟩, ⟨{2, 3, 4}, 2⟩}. Of course other choices for 𝑦 will also satisfy the axiom, for example 𝑦 = {{{1, 2}, 2}, {{1, 3}, 1}, {{2, 3, 4}, 4}}. What AC tells us is that there exists at least one such 𝑦, but it doesn't tell us which one. (New usage is discouraged.) (Contributed by NM, 19-Jul-1996.)
⊢ ∃𝑦∀𝑧 ∈ 𝑥 (𝑧 ≠ ∅ → ∃!𝑤 ∈ 𝑧 ∃𝑣 ∈ 𝑦 (𝑧 ∈ 𝑣 ∧ 𝑤 ∈ 𝑣))
Axiom	ax-ac2 9168*	In order to avoid uses of ax-reg 8380 for derivation of AC equivalents, we provide ax-ac2 9168, which is equivalent to the standard AC of textbooks. This appears to be the shortest known equivalent to the standard AC when expressed in terms of set theory primitives. It was found by Kurt Maes as theorem ackm 9170. We removed the leading quantifier to make it slightly shorter, since we have ax-gen 1713 available. The derivation of ax-ac2 9168 from ax-ac 9164 is shown by theorem axac2 9171, and the reverse derivation by axac 9172. Note that we use ax-reg 8380 to derive ax-ac 9164 from ax-ac2 9168, but not to derive ax-ac2 9168 from ax-ac 9164. (Contributed by NM, 19-Dec-2016.)

Theorem	axac3 9169	This theorem asserts that the constant CHOICE is a theorem, thus eliminating it as a hypothesis while assuming ax-ac2 9168 as an axiom. (Contributed by Mario Carneiro, 6-May-2015.) (Revised by NM, 20-Dec-2016.) (Proof modification is discouraged.)
⊢ CHOICE
Theorem	ackm 9170*	A remarkable equivalent to the Axiom of Choice that has only five quantifiers (when expanded to ∈, = primitives in prenex form), discovered and proved by Kurt Maes. This establishes a new record, reducing from 6 to 5 the largest number of quantified variables needed by any ZFC axiom. The ZF-equivalence to AC is shown by theorem dfackm 8871. Maes found this version of AC in April, 2004 (replacing a longer version, also with five quantifiers, that he found in November, 2003). See Kurt Maes, "A 5-quantifier (∈,=)-expression ZF-equivalent to the Axiom of Choice" (http://arxiv.org/PS_cache/arxiv/pdf/0705/0705.3162v1.pdf).

Theorem	ac4 9180*	Equivalent of Axiom of Choice. We do not insist that 𝑓 be a function. However, theorem ac5 9182, derived from this one, shows that this form of the axiom does imply that at least one such set 𝑓 whose existence we assert is in fact a function. Axiom of Choice of [TakeutiZaring] p. 83. Takeuti and Zaring call this "weak choice" in contrast to "strong choice" ∃𝐹∀𝑧(𝑧 ≠ ∅ → (𝐹‘𝑧) ∈ 𝑧), which asserts the existence of a universal choice function but requires second-order quantification on (proper) class variable 𝐹 and thus cannot be expressed in our first-order formalization. However, it has been shown that ZF plus strong choice is a conservative extension of ZF plus weak choice. See Ulrich Felgner, "Comparison of the axioms of local and universal choice," Fundamenta Mathematica, 71, 43-62 (1971). Weak choice can be strengthened in a different direction to choose from a collection of proper classes; see ac6s5 9196. (Contributed by NM, 21-Jul-1996.)
