Axiom ax-ac2 10500

Description: In order to avoid uses of ax-reg 9629 for derivation of AC equivalents, we provide ax-ac2 10500, 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 10502. We removed the leading quantifier to make it slightly shorter, since we have ax-gen 1791 available. The derivation of ax-ac2 10500 from ax-ac 10496 is shown by Theorem axac2 10503, and the reverse derivation by axac 10504. Note that we use ax-reg 9629 to derive ax-ac 10496 from ax-ac2 10500, but not to derive ax-ac2 10500 from ax-ac 10496. (Contributed by NM, 19-Dec-2016.)
