How statement and proof provenance work

The first chip identifies the source of the statement or construction; the second identifies the source of its local proof or verification.

  • Literature-sourced: the exact statement appears in a cited source; only wording and notation differ.
  • AI-adapted: a semantically identical restatement of literature-sourced material, modulo indexing, notation, and boundary cases adopted by the library.
  • AI-generated: a genuinely novel statement formulated by AI, with no source for the claim itself.

These labels describe origin, not correctness: citations and verification chips remain separate evidence.

The Countable-Mode CAR Algebra Has a Non-Fock-Equivalent Irreducible Representation

Statement refuted

The false statement is: every irreducible representation of the countably infinite-mode CAR C*-algebra is unitarily equivalent to its occupation-space Fock representation.

Let πF be the Fock representation on F∞, and let α exchange every annihilator with its creator. Then πF∘α is irreducible and is not unitarily equivalent to πF.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The countably infinite-mode CAR algebra, its Fock representation, and the particle-hole automorphism.

[F1]

The representation πF∘α is irreducible and inequivalent to πF (Countable-Mode CAR Has Inequivalent Irreducible Representations).

Counterexample

1.1givenF1construct

The automorphism α(aj)=aj† is defined on the same countable-mode CAR algebra, so composing the Fock representation with α gives another representation of that algebra.

2.1givenF1step 1.1algebra∎

By [F1], this representation is irreducible but not unitarily equivalent to πF. It is therefore a counterexample to the universal claim that every irreducible representation is Fock-equivalent.
