    Abstract Bishop's Lemma is a centrepiece in the development of constructive analysis. We show that 1.its proof requires some form of the axiom of choice; and that 2.the completeness requirement in Bishop's Lemma can be weakened and that there is a vast class of non‐complete spaces that Bishop's Lemma applies to.

    We show that several weakenings of the Cauchy condition are all equivalent under the assumption of countable choice, and investigate to what extent choice is necessary. We also show that the syntactically reminiscent notion of metastability allows similar variations, but is empty in terms of its constructive content.

  • HD (2013). Weak König's Lemma Implies the Uniform Continuity Theorem. Computability, 2(1), pp. 9–13.
    As the title suggests we are going to show that Weak König's Lemma implies the uniform continuity theorem; to be more precise the uniform continuity theorem for functions $[0, 1] \to \mathbb R$. This improves upon a result by J. Berger who has proven this implication for functions $[0,1] \to \mathbb N$.

    Veldman proved that the contrapositive of countable binary choice is a theorem of full-fledged intuitionism, to which end he used a principle of continuous choice and the fan theorem. It has turned out that continuous choice is unnecessary in this context, and that a weak form of the fan theorem suffices which holds in the presence of countable choice. In particular, the contrapositive of countable binary choice is valid in Bishop-style constructive mathematics. We further discuss a generalisation of this result and link it to Ishihara's boundedness principle BD-N.
