The axiom of choice is related to the first of Hilbert's problems.

Simpler proofs using the axiom of choice
For an orthomorphism $A$ in a (real or complex) Banach lattice $X$ the formula $\lvert A\rvert x=\lvert Ax\rvert$ for $x\ge0$ can be obtained relatively quickly if one uses the fact that $X$ is order …

Axiom of Countable Choice and meager sets
What is your definition of meager in (ZF)? Being a countable union of nowhere dense sets? In that case, the given argument about the failure of (UMM) in (ZF) is not clear: It is not obvious (to me) th …
