Remarks on the Stone Spaces of the Integers and the Reals without AC

In ZF, i.e., the Zermelo–Fraenkel set theory minus the Axiom of Choice AC, we investigate the relationship between the Tychonoff product 2P(X), where 2 is 2 = f0; 1g with the discrete topology, and the Stone space S(X) of the Boolean algebra of all subsets of X, where X =ω,R. We also study the possible placement of well-known topological statements which concern the cited spaces in the hierarchy of weak choice principles.
