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 distribution is involutive

Statement

Assume ACω. Let h be a Lie subalgebra of g=Lie⁡(G). The left-translated distribution Dh is involutive.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: ACω, a Lie group G and a Lie subalgebra h⊆g=Lie⁡(G).

[A1]

ACω is countable choice. The Axiom of Countable Choice (ACω).

[F1]

Under ACω, left translation makes Dh a smooth constant-rank distribution. The left-translated distribution associated to a Lie subalgebra.

[F2]

Involutivity can be checked on any smooth local frame. Involutivity can be checked on a local frame.

[F3]

Under ACω, the bracket of left-invariant vector fields is left invariant. The Lie bracket of left-invariant fields is left invariant.

Proof

technique · direct
1.1F1construct

Choose one finite basis E1,…,Er of h, using the empty basis if r=0, and let EiL(g)=d(Lg)eEi. By [F1], the fields E1L,…,ErL form a global smooth frame for Dh.

2.1F3step 1.1algebra

By [F3], [EiL,EjL] is left invariant. Its value at e is the Lie-algebra bracket [Ei,Ej], which belongs to h because h is a subalgebra. If [Ei,Ej]=∑kcijkEk, left invariance gives [EiL,EjL]=∑kcijkEkL, a section of Dh.

3.1A1F1F2F3step 1.1step 2.1∎

The frame criterion [F2] applied to step 2.1 proves involutivity. When r=0, every local section is zero and the same conclusion is vacuous; when r=dim⁡G, the distribution is TG. The hypothesis [A1] is used through [F1]'s smooth tangent-bundle trivialization and [F3]'s invariant-bracket result; choosing the single finite basis in step 1.1 adds no choice.

Dependency tree · two levels

21 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.
