May 16, 2013 at 9:44 comment added Gerhard Paseman Butch, you missed an answer posted by Asaf Karagila, which was later deleted because of (I suspect) a nonobvious use of choice. Somehow a set which was some form of union of (images of) the a cardinals was shown to exist inside the b cardinals and that this set exhibited the desired cardinality. While it was a nice presentation, I was unsure how the set guaranteed the desired cardinality in ZF. On the matter of personal remarks, it's best to pretend you are at a televised seminar when you are making them. Gerhard "Typing This While Mostly Naked" Paseman, 2013.05.16
May 16, 2013 at 6:25 comment added Benjamin Dickman Perhaps eudml.org/doc/213170 (`Axiomatic and algebraic aspects of two theorems on sums of cardinals', Tarski, 1948) is a good place to look for this theorem, a result implying it, or a separate reference. I hope someone with more patience/time than I have at the moment finds this a helpful start.

clarification
May 16, 2013 at 3:41 comment added Péter Komjáth I just heard this nice result from Fred Galvin a few weeks ago. My understanding is that he proved it without knowing a reference.

May 15, 2013 at 22:58 comment added The User How do you want to prove this per induction for $m=n=3$? I think that this induction does not work.
May 15, 2013 at 22:56 comment added Andrés E. Caicedo Funny, when you mentioned this in your previous question, I almost asked for a reference. I'm still in the process of trying to dig one up myself. (In other news, I believe Marion and I owe you an email.)
