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 Lie subalgebra need not integrate to a closed subgroup

Statement

False claim: every Lie subalgebra of the Lie algebra of a Lie group is the Lie algebra of a closed Lie subgroup.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: ACω, an irrational real number α, the torus G=T2, and the line

h=R(1,α)Lie(T2)R2.

[F1]

Under ACω, every Lie subalgebra has a unique connected immersed integral Lie subgroup. The Axiom of Countable Choice (ACω), Lie subgroup–Lie subalgebra correspondence.

[F2]

The irrational winding i(t)=(e2πit,e2πiαt) is an injectively immersed Lie-group homomorphism into T2, and its image is dense. The irrational torus flow is free with dense orbits.

Refutation

1.1

The torus Lie algebra is abelian, so every linear subspace is bracket closed; in particular h is a Lie subalgebra. The derivative of the winding i at 0 has image R(1,α)=h, and its source R is connected. Thus [F2] makes i(R) a connected immersed integral subgroup for h. It is not all of T2: its intersection with {1}×S1 is the countable set {(1,e2πiαn):nZ}, not the whole circle. Since [F2] also makes it dense, it is not closed.

1.2

Suppose, for contradiction, that a closed Lie subgroup KT2 has Lie algebra h. Let K0 be the connected component of its identity. By [F3], K0 is open and closed in K. It is a subgroup: multiplication maps the connected space K0×K0 continuously into a connected subset containing the identity, and inversion does the same to K0, so [F4] puts both images in the identity component. With the open submanifold structure, K0 has TeK0=TeK=h and is a connected immersed Lie subgroup of T2.

2.1

Uniqueness in [F1], applied to steps 1.1 and 1.2, identifies K0 as an immersed subgroup with i(R). But K0 is closed in K by [F3] and K is closed in T2 by the assumption in step 1.2, so K0=i(R) is closed in T2, contradicting step 1.1.

3.1

Therefore the irrational line h is not the Lie algebra of any closed Lie subgroup, even though [F1] integrates it uniquely to the connected immersed winding. This refutes the claim. The argument assumes only the stated ACω, inherited by the correspondence theorem.
