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.

The A_1 range of a power weight

Example

Assume the Axiom of Countable Choice (The Axiom of Countable Choice (ACω)).

For α>−n the power weight w(x)=∣x∣α belongs to A1 if and only if −n<α≤0. For −n<α≤0 the function is radially nonincreasing and locally integrable and satisfies M(∣x∣α)≤Cn,α∣x∣α almost everywhere; for α>0 it is continuous with value 0 at the origin and fails the cube-average/essential-infimum form of A1 on cubes centred at the origin; for α≤−n it is not locally integrable. Thus the A1 exponent interval is the interval obtained as the limit of the ranges at p↓1, and it is a strict subset of the doubling range α>−n.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: Countable Choice; n≥1, α∈R, and w(x)=∣x∣α.

[F1]

For α>−n, w is a weight, and by The two defining forms of A_1 agree the condition w∈A1 is equivalent to M(∣x∣α)≤C∣x∣α a.e. for some C<∞ (The A_p range of a power weight, Muckenhoupt A_p and A_1 weights, Weights, their associated measures, and the spaces L^p(w)).

[F2]

For α>−n the radial integral over a ball is ∫B(0,ρ)∣z∣αdz=∣Sn−1∣ρn+α/(n+α) (Polar coordinates decompose Lebesgue measure into r^{n-1} dr d sigma), the ball B(y,r)∋x with ∣x∣≥4r satisfies ∣z∣≥∣x∣/2 for all z∈B(y,r), and B(y,r)⊆B(0,∣x∣+2r) whenever ∣x∣<4r (elementary triangle inequality, Continuity and derivatives of positive-base real powers for the monotonicity of t↦tα).

1.1F1F2givenalgebra

Let −n<α≤0 and let B(y,r)∋x≠0. If ∣x∣≥4r, then ∣z−x∣<2r for z∈B(y,r), so ∣z∣≥∣x∣/2 and ∣z∣α≤2−α∣x∣α. If ∣x∣<4r, then B(y,r)⊆B(0,∣x∣+2r)⊆B(0,6r); [F2] bounds its integral by Cn,αrn+α and rα≤4−α∣x∣α. Dividing by the ball volume gives an average bounded by Cn,α′∣x∣α in both cases. Taking the supremum gives the uncentred bound, hence also the centred bound and A1 membership.

1.2F1givenalgebra

For α>0 and a cube Q centred at the origin, ess inf⁡Q∣x∣α=0 because every positive threshold has a subball around the origin on which ∣x∣α lies below it; that subball has positive Lebesgue measure, while ⟨∣x∣α⟩Q>0; hence the cube-average/essential-infimum form of A1 fails on Q, and by [F1] the pointwise form fails as well.

2.1step 1.1step 1.2given∎

For α≤−n the function is not locally integrable, hence not a weight, by The A_p range of a power weight. Together with steps 1.1 and 1.2 this shows that A1 membership holds exactly for −n<α≤0, while the doubling range for the measure ∣x∣αdx is the strictly larger interval α>−n (the direct doubling computation in The A_p range of a power weight, the final verification step).
