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.

Counting measure as Haar measure on a discrete group

Example

On any discrete group G, including an uncountable one, counting measure μ(E)=E for finite E and μ(E)= otherwise is both left and right Haar. For fCc(G) its integral is the finite sum xsuppff(x).

Facts & Assumptions

Given: A discrete group G.

[F1]

Haar measure means nonzero invariant Borel measure, compact-finite and regular. (Left Haar integral and left Haar measure)

1.1

Every subset of G is open and Borel. A compact subset is finite, since its cover by singleton open sets has a finite subcover; a finite set is compact by selecting one member of a cover for each point. Disjoint countable additivity of counting follows as follows: if the union is finite, cardinalities add finitely; if it is infinite, either a member is infinite or the finite partial sums of the cardinalities are unbounded, and both sides are infinity.

2.1

Outer regularity holds by taking the open superset E itself. The supremum of the sizes of finite subsets of E is E if finite and infinity otherwise, since an infinite set has n distinct elements for each finite n. This proves open inner regularity. Compact finiteness follows from step 1.1 and μ({e})=1 proves nonzeroness. The bijections xax and xxa preserve finite cardinality and infinitude, proving both invariances.

3.1

A compactly supported function has finite support, so simple-function integration gives the displayed finite sum. For instance f=21{e} has fdμ=2 and Lafdμ=21{a}dμ=2 for every a. For the zero function the empty sum is zero.

6 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.
