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.

Effectively open sets in Cantor space

Definition

Cantor space 2ω is the set of infinite binary sequences. For σ∈{0,1}∗, let [σ]={X:σ is a prefix of X}. Its choice-free fair-coin content is 2−∣σ∣, as in Binary-sequence cylinders and fair-coin content. The choice-free fair-coin open content μo of Choice-free fair-coin content on open subsets of binary sequence space assigns this same value to [σ] and is countably subadditive on open sets. Assuming countable choice (The Axiom of Countable Choice (ACω)), μo agrees on open sets with the unique Borel fair-coin probability of Fair-coin measure on binary sequences.

A set W⊆{0,1}∗ is computably enumerable when it is the range of a partial computable enumeration procedure (equivalently, some algorithm prints exactly its members, repetitions allowed), in the partial-computability convention of Computable and partial computable functions. An effectively open set is a union ⋃σ∈W[σ] for such a W. String conventions are those of Computation alphabets, words, the empty word, and Σ∗. The definition of effective openness and the open-content value μo(U) require no choice principle.

Dependency tree · two levels

21 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.
