Abstract

The Hahn-Banach extension theorem is at once main pillar of functional analysis and — due to its notorious nature as consequence of the axiom of choice — prime example of a pure existential statement. By way of a general syntactic conservation result for multi-conclusion entailment relations on top of their single-conclusion counterparts, we are able to trace back the Hahn-Banach theorem to a disjunction elimination. The classical result can then be regained by semantic interpretation.
