Properties
Example

In mathematics, a family of sets is of finite character provided it has the following properties:

For each , every finite subset of belongs to .
If every finite subset of a given set belongs to , then belongs to .

Properties

A family of sets of finite character enjoys the following properties:

For each , every (finite or infinite) subset of belongs to .
Tukey's lemma: In , partially ordered by inclusion, the union of every chain of elements of also belong to , therefore, by Zorn's lemma, contains at least one maximal element.

Example

Let V be a vector space, and let F be the family of linearly independent subsets of V. Then F is a family of finite character (because a subset X ⊆ V is linearly dependent iff X has a finite subset which is linearly dependent).

Therefore, in every vector space, there exists a maximal family of linearly independent elements. As a maximal family is a vector basis, every vector space has a (possibly infinite) vector basis.
