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.

Basic properties of the holomorphic hull

Statement

Let $Ω \subseteq C^{m}$ be a domain.

For every $E \subseteq Ω$ , one has $E \subseteq {\hat{E}}_{Ω}$ .
If $K \subseteq Ω$ is compact, then ${\hat{K}}_{Ω}$ is closed in $Ω$ and is bounded in each coordinate.
For every $E \subseteq Ω$ , one has ${\hat{{\hat{E}}_{Ω}}}_{Ω} = {\hat{E}}_{Ω} .$

Facts & Assumptions

Given: A domain $Ω \subseteq C^{m}$ , a subset $E \subseteq Ω$ , and a compact set $K \subseteq Ω$ .

[L1]

The holomorphic hull is defined by the pointwise inequalities $∣ f (a) ∣ \leq \sup_{E} ∣ f ∣$ for every holomorphic $f$ on $Ω$ (Holomorphic hulls and holomorphic convexity).

Proof

1.1

If $a \in E$ and $f \in O (Ω)$ , then $∣ f (a) ∣ \leq \sup_{E} ∣ f ∣$ by definition of the supremum. Hence [L1] gives $a \in {\hat{E}}_{Ω}$ , so $E \subseteq {\hat{E}}_{Ω}$ .

1.2

For compact $K$ , [L1] gives ${\hat{K}}_{Ω} = ⋂_{f \in O (Ω)} {a \in Ω : ∣ f (a) ∣ \leq \sup_{K} ∣ f ∣} .$ Each set in the intersection is closed in $Ω$ because $f$ is continuous, so ${\hat{K}}_{Ω}$ is closed in $Ω$ . The coordinate functions $z \mapsto z_{j}$ are holomorphic on $Ω$ , so [L1] also gives $∣ a_{j} ∣ \leq \sup_{z \in K} ∣ z_{j} ∣$ for every $a \in {\hat{K}}_{Ω}$ and every coordinate $j$ . Thus ${\hat{K}}_{Ω}$ is coordinate-bounded.

2.1

Step 1.1 applied to $E$ gives ${\hat{E}}_{Ω} \subseteq {\hat{{\hat{E}}_{Ω}}}_{Ω}$ . For the reverse inclusion, let $a \in {\hat{{\hat{E}}_{Ω}}}_{Ω}$ . Then [L1] gives $∣ f (a) ∣ \leq \sup_{{\hat{E}}_{Ω}} ∣ f ∣$ for every $f \in O (Ω)$ , while the definition of ${\hat{E}}_{Ω}$ itself gives $\sup_{{\hat{E}}_{Ω}} ∣ f ∣ \leq \sup_{E} ∣ f ∣$ . So $∣ f (a) ∣ \leq \sup_{E} ∣ f ∣$ for every holomorphic $f$ , and another use of [L1] shows $a \in {\hat{E}}_{Ω}$ .

Dependency tree · two levels

2 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.
