Theorem ac2 5704
Description: Axiom of Choice equivalent. By using restricted quantifiers, we can express the Axiom of Choice with a single explicit conjunction. (If you want to figure it out, the rewritten equivalent ac3 5705 is easier to understand.) Note: aceq0 5688 shows the logical equivalence to ax-ac 5702.
