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.
A boundary atom gives an h1 function without an L1 density
Example
Assume the Axiom of Choice and fix , and put , so that for . Then:
- everywhere, is harmonic, and with ;
- has no representing density: there is no with ;
- whenever in with ;
- for every , so as and is unbounded on .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The Axiom of Choice, hence countable choice; a point ; the Dirac measure ; the density-measure and Poisson-integral conventions of [L2]; and .
The torus is compact Hausdorff with a countable base, and , , is a bijection onto the Euclidean unit circle, so and is injective. Its normalized Haar measure is a probability measure with for Borel ; every fibre is at most countable, so , and the integral of an function over an -null set vanishes (The one-dimensional torus and its normalized Haar integral, Finite tori are compact Hausdorff spaces separated by characters, Every at most countable subset of is Lebesgue null; in particular , A nonnegative integral over a null set vanishes).
For a finite regular complex Borel measure on one has with ; for the density measure is and (The Poisson integral of a finite complex boundary measure, The Poisson kernel on the unit disc).
Under the Axiom of Choice every has a unique finite regular complex Borel measure on with and ; conversely every finite regular complex Borel measure on gives an function with ; and a general function need not have an density (h1 is isometric to finite regular complex boundary measures).
The elements of are complex harmonic functions and (Harmonic Hardy classes on the unit disc).
is a probability measure with and ; for bounded Borel the evaluation identity is proved locally in step 1.1 from these facts and the definition of the integral (The Dirac set function at a point, A Dirac set function is a probability measure).
The integral against a signed or complex measure is defined as the limit of simple integrals along -approximating complex simple functions and does not depend on the approximating sequence; a probability measure is a finite signed measure and a finite complex measure, and for a measure viewed as a signed measure one has for every Borel (Integration against a signed or complex measure, and the class L^1(nu) = L^1(|nu|), The simple integral against a signed or complex measure, The total variation |nu|(E) from countable measurable partitions, A signed measure is countably additive and takes at most one infinite value, Measures on sigma-algebras, A complex measure is a finite-valued countably additive set function).
Assume countable choice. Every Borel measure on a second-countable LCH space that is finite on compact sets is regular, so is a finite regular Borel measure and hence a finite regular complex Borel measure; a complex measure is regular exactly when its total variation is regular. A density measure with is a complex measure with , so and is likewise finite regular (Locally finite Borel measures on second-countable LCH spaces are regular, Regular complex Borel measures, A complex L^1 density defines a complex measure whose total variation is |h| dmu, The Axiom of Countable Choice ()).
Verification
Integrating bounded Borel functions against . Since is a probability measure, and by [L6] and [L5]. Let be a bounded Borel function on and let , a complex simple function with simple integral . The constant sequence is admissible in the definition of , because is a nonnegative measurable function with : the integrand vanishes at and is supported on , which is -null by [L5], so its integral vanishes by A nonnegative integral over a null set vanishes. Hence .
The function is the translate of the kernel. Fix . The function is continuous on by [L2], hence bounded Borel, so step 1.1 and the definition of the Poisson integral give , and this is strictly positive because .
Membership and norm. By [L7] the Dirac measure is a finite regular complex Borel measure, so the converse clause of [L3] shows that lies in with , and is harmonic by [L4].
Limits at the other boundary points. Let and let with . Then step 2.1 gives ; here , while by injectivity of and one has , so . Hence : the limit is at every boundary point other than , along arbitrary sequences inside the disc.
The radial blow-up at . For one has with , so step 2.1 gives . As the numerator tends to and the denominator to through positive values, so ; in particular is unbounded on .
No density. Suppose satisfied . Then , and by [L7] the density measure is a finite complex measure with , hence a finite regular complex Borel measure; being finite and regular it is one of the measures to which the uniqueness clause of [L3] applies, so . Evaluating both sides at the singleton gives : the middle integral vanishes because and , while the last value is by [L5]. This contradiction shows that no represents .
Assembly. Steps 2.1, 3.1, 4.1, 3.2 and 3.3 establish, respectively, the identification , the membership with norm and harmonicity, the absence of a representing density, the boundary limit at every point other than , and the radial formula . So the boundary atom produces an unbounded positive function whose boundary measure is singular with respect to and which therefore has no density; the Axiom of Choice is used only through the representation theorem [L3] and the countable-choice regularity corollary [L7]. ∎
