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.
Assuming countable choice, the completion domain is a sigma-algebra
Statement
Assume the Axiom of Countable Choice. For every measure space , the completion domain of The completion domain and proposed completed set function of a measure space is a sigma-algebra on containing .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: A measure space and the Axiom of Countable Choice.
The completion domain consists of the sets with , , and (The completion domain and proposed completed set function of a measure space).
A sigma-algebra contains the empty set, is closed under relative complements, and is closed under countable unions (Sigma-algebras).
A countable union of measurable null sets is measurable and null (Null sets are closed under countable unions and, in a complete space, under arbitrary subsets).
Countable choice selects one member from every nonempty natural-number-indexed family (The Axiom of Countable Choice ()).
Proof
Every belongs to by taking ; in particular .
If with , , replace by without changing . Then and are disjoint, and , whose first part is measurable and whose second lies in the measurable null set ; hence .
Let be a sequence in . For each , the family of triples witnessing [L1] is nonempty, so [L4] selects with and .
Put and . Then , by [L3], and , so .
Step 1.1 gives the empty set and containment of , step 1.2 gives complements, and step 2.1 gives countable unions; therefore is a sigma-algebra.

Dependency tree · two levels
14 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.
