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.

Assuming Countable Choice, Lp-convergent sequences have almost-everywhere convergent subsequences

Statement

Assume Countable Choice. Let 1≤p≤∞. If un→u in Lp(μ), then some subsequence of (un) admits measurable representatives converging almost everywhere to a measurable representative of u.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: Countable Choice (The Axiom of Countable Choice (ACω)) and a norm-convergent sequence (un) in Lp(μ).

[L1]

Under Countable Choice, Riesz-Fischer completeness states that every norm-convergent sequence in Lp(μ) has an almost-everywhere convergent subsequence of representatives (Riesz-Fischer completeness of Lp for 1≤p≤∞). Applying that representative-selection clause in step 1.1 is the use of Countable Choice here.

Proof

technique · Choose a rapidly convergent subsequence from an $L^p$-convergent sequence and re-use the subsequence construction inside Riesz-Fischer
1.1L1given

The sequence (un) is Cauchy because it converges in norm. Applying [L1] to that Cauchy sequence gives an Lp limit together with an almost-everywhere convergent subsequence of representatives. Because metric limits are unique, the limit supplied by [L1] must be the given u.

2.1step 1.1∎

That subsequence is the required one.

17 results within two dependency steps of this one, each drawn at its shortest distance from it. An arrow runs from a result to what uses it, so the chart reads left to right and ends at this result, which carries a heavier outline. Every node is a link to that result.
