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.
Weakly convergent bounded controls have uniformly convergent states
Statement

Facts & Assumptions
Given: The bounded measurable linear state equation, the compact control set , and a sequence in the pointwise admissible set.
The state map has a unique continuous solution and its zero-initial-state part is bounded and linear from to (The bounded measurable linear ODE has a unique affine state map).
Every control in satisfies almost everywhere (Finite-horizon bounded-control linear-quadratic ODE problem and compactness of ).
Weak convergence means convergence under every bounded linear functional on (Weak convergence of nets and sequences).
For a Lebesgue-integrable vector function , the componentwise integral obeys : if , test the integral against and use componentwise linearity, Euclidean Cauchy--Schwarz, scalar integral monotonicity, and (The Lebesgue integral is linear on , Cauchy-Schwarz with its equality case, the triangle inequality for , the parallelogram law and polarisation, The modulus of an integral is bounded by the integral of the modulus, Monotonicity and nonnegative homogeneity of the nonnegative integral); if the bound is immediate.
Proof
By [F1] and [F2], the states have a common bound in supremum norm. For , the integral equation and [F4] give , where . The same bound holds for .
For each fixed , evaluation at composed with the bounded linear zero-initial-state map in [F1] is a bounded linear functional on . Thus [F3] gives coordinatewise.
If , step 1.1 makes each state constant, and step 1.2 gives uniform convergence. If , fix and choose a finite partition of with mesh smaller than . By step 1.2 and finiteness of its nodes, there is an index after which at every node. Any is within the mesh of a node, so step 1.1 gives . Hence the convergence is uniform.
