Abstract

It is well known that the extensional axiom of choice implies the law of excluded middle . We here prove that the converse holds as well if we have the intensional axiom of choice ACint, which is provable in Martin-Löf's type theory, and a weak extensionality principle , which is provable in Martin-Löf's extensional type theory. In particular, EM is equivalent to ACext in extensional type theory
