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.
Likelihood-ratio equivalence on common discrete support
Definition
Let be countable with its full -field, so it is standard Borel under the discrete metric. Let , and let be dominated by a fixed -finite positive measure . Choose the finite-valued densities as in Likelihood densities. Let satisfy and for every and every . Write . For each , and : positivity follows from , finiteness from sigma-finiteness, and the value is fixed by the density integral on the positive-measure singleton. Consequently
For , define if there is a constant such that for every . The displayed fixed singleton factor shows this is equivalent to constancy of the common-reference density ratio. This is an equivalence relation: the constants for , and are respectively , and . Its equivalence classes form a countable quotient. Equip that quotient with its discrete -field; it is standard Borel because the discrete metric is complete and the countable space itself is dense. Since and , is nonempty; define the class statistic by mapping each point of to its class and every point off to any fixed class. It is measurable because has the full -field, and values off are null under every law.

Dependency tree · two levels
10 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.
