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.

Strong L2 convergence preserves an L2-normalisation constraint

Example

Assume the Axiom of Choice. Let n≥1, let Ω⊆Rn be a bounded extension domain and let uj⇀u weakly in H1(Ω) with sup⁡j∥uj∥H1(Ω)<∞ and ∥uj∥L2(Ω)=1 for all j. Then uj→u in L2(Ω) and ∥u∥L2(Ω)=1. Thus an L2-normalisation constraint passes to the weak limit, which is exactly the step used when a constrained minimisation or eigenvalue problem is solved by taking a weakly convergent minimising sequence and then upgrading to strong convergence.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: the Axiom of Choice, a bounded extension domain Ω⊆Rn, a sequence uj⇀u weakly in H1(Ω) with sup⁡j∥uj∥H1(Ω)<∞ and ∥uj∥L2(Ω)=1.

[F2]

The reverse triangle inequality. ∣∥g∥−∥h∥∣≤∥g−h∥ for every norm, in particular for the L2 norm. Indeed ∥g∥≤∥g−h∥+∥h∥ and the exchanged inequality follow from the norm triangle inequality. (The space Lp(μ) as the quotient by null functions)

By [F1] the sequence converges strongly in L2(Ω); by [F2] applied to the L2 norm, ∣∥uj∥L2−∥u∥L2∣≤∥uj−u∥L2→0.

2.1F1F2step 1.1∎

Since ∥uj∥L2=1 for every j, step 1.1 forces ∥u∥L2=1; hence the weak limit of a normalised sequence is again normalised and lies in the constraint set {v:∥v∥L2=1}, so it is an admissible candidate for a constrained minimiser. No weak lower semicontinuity of any energy is asserted here; only the passage of the normalisation to the limit is. The Axiom of Choice is inherited through [F1].

23 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.
