Zorn's Lemma is a principle in set theory that is often used in the context of proving the existence of certain types of mathematical objects. It is equivalent to the Axiom of Choice and the Well-Ordering Theorem, meaning that if one of these statements is assumed to be true, then the others can be proven true as well.
