Alphabeta MathHow 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.
Improper integrals at a finite singular endpoint
Statement
Suppose is Riemann integrable on every with . Its improper integral at the left endpoint is provided the one-sided limit is a finite real number.
If instead is integrable on every with , define Convergence always means existence of the displayed finite limit. The value assigned to at the singular endpoint, if any, is irrelevant because changing one endpoint value does not change any proper truncation integral.
Depends on
- The left and right limits of $f$ at $c$, as limits of the restrictions of $f$ to $A \cap (-\infty, c)$ and $A \cap (c, \infty)$
- The integral with oriented limits: $\int_a^a f := 0$ and $\int_b^a f := -\int_a^b f$
- The lower and upper Darboux integrals of a bounded $f$ on $[a,b]$ as $\sup_P L(f,P)$ and $\inf_P U(f,P)$, Darboux integrability as their equality, and the notation $\int_a^b f$

Dependency tree · two levels
19 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.
