Axiom ax-ac2 10503

Description: In order to avoid uses of ax-reg 9632 for derivation of AC equivalents, we provide ax-ac2 10503, 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 10505. We removed the leading quantifier to make it slightly shorter, since we have ax-gen 1795 available. The derivation of ax-ac2 10503 from ax-ac 10499 is shown by Theorem axac2 10506, and the reverse derivation by axac 10507. Note that we use ax-reg 9632 to derive ax-ac 10499 from ax-ac2 10503, but not to derive ax-ac2 10503 from ax-ac 10499. (Contributed by NM, 19-Dec-2016.)
