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, the outer set function induced by a premeasure is an outer measure

Statement

Assume the Axiom of Countable Choice. The outer set function induced by a premeasure is an outer measure.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: Countable choice, an algebra A0 on X, a premeasure μ0, and its induced outer set function μ.

[L1]

Assuming countable choice, the infimum of countable covering costs defines an outer measure. (Assuming countable choice, countable covering costs define an outer measure)

[F1]

An algebra of subsets of X contains , is closed under complements relative to X and binary unions, and therefore also contains X. (Algebras of subsets)

Proof

technique · direct
1.1

The algebra law in [F1] gives ,XA0, and the premeasure normalization gives μ0()=0. Thus C=A0 and p=μ0 satisfy every hypothesis of [L1].

F1given
2.1

Applying [L1] to the data in step 1.1 shows that the induced outer set function μ is an outer measure.

Dependency tree · two levels

15 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.
