In this question, we have proved that $\langle \Bbb R,+ \rangle \cong \langle \Bbb C,+ \rangle$:
- Pick your favourite Hamel basis $H=\{U_\alpha \mid \alpha \in I\}$ where $I$ is an indexing set.
- Then, $H \cup iH$ is a basis of $\Bbb C$ as a vector space over $\Bbb Q$.
- Pick your favourite bijection $\varphi:H \mapsto H \cup iH$.
- This gives an isomorphism between the two groups concerned.
Choice is used in the 1st step and, I believe, in the 3rd step.
Let $P$ be the proposition $\langle \Bbb R,+ \rangle \cong \langle \Bbb C,+ \rangle$ under $ZF$. Which of the following statements are true?
- $\vdash P$
- $\vdash \neg P$
- $\operatorname{Con}(ZF \cup \{P\})$
- $\operatorname{Con}(ZF \cup \{\neg P\})$
