Abstract

The axiom of dependent choice (DC) and the axiom of countable choice (AC_ω) are two weak forms of the axiom of choice that can be stated for a specific set: DC(X)asserts that any total binary relation on X has an infinite chain, while AC_ω(X) asserts that any countable collection of nonempty subsets of X has a choice function. It is well-known that DC implies AC_ω. We study for which sets and under which hypotheses DC(X)double right arrow AC_ω(X) and then we show it is consistent with ZF that there is a set A subset of R for which DC(A) holds, but AC_ω(A) fails
