Theorem modelac8prim 45529

Description: If 𝑀 is a transitive class, then the following are equivalent. (1) Every nonempty set 𝑥 ∈ 𝑀 of pairwise disjoint nonempty sets has a choice set in 𝑀. (2) The class 𝑀 models the Axiom of Choice, in the form ac8prim 45528.

Lemma II.2.11(7) of [Kunen2] p. 114. Kunen has the additional hypotheses that the Extensionality, Separation, Pairing, and Union axioms are true in 𝑀. This, apparently, is because Kunen's statement of the Axiom of Choice uses defined notions, including ∅ and ∩, and these axioms guarantee that these notions are well-defined. When we state the axiom using primitives only, the need for these hypotheses disappears. (Contributed by Eric Schmidt, 19-Oct-2025.)
