A New Weak Choice Principle
Abstract
For every natural number we introduce a new weak choice principle : Given any infinite set , there is an infinite subset and a selection function that chooses an -element subset from every finite containing at least elements. By constructing new permutation models built on a set of atoms obtained as Fra\"iss\'e limits, we will study the relation of to the weak choice principles (that has already been studied by Montenegro, Halbeisen and Tachtsis): Given any infinite set , there is an infinite subset with a choice function on the family of all -element subsets of . Moreover, we prove a stronger analogue of Montenegros results when we study the relation between and which is defined by: Given any infinite family of finite sets of cardinality greater than , there is an infinite subfamily with a selection function that chooses a -element subset from each .
