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.

Compact-support Stokes on Euclidean space

Statement

For n1 and ηΩcn1(Rn), with the standard orientation, Rndη=0.

Facts & Assumptions

[F1]

Chart integral with its orientation sign: Let Mn be oriented and ω a smooth top form with compact support contained in a connected chart (U,ϕ). For n1 write (ϕ1)ω=fdx1dxn. Let σϕ{1,1} be the sign of its coordinate frame relative to the chosen orientation. Define the chart integral by Iϕ(ω)=σϕRnf~(x)dx. Here f~ is the Riemann-integrable zero extension, including across a genuine half-space face, as in lem-chart-supported-coefficients-have-well-defined-riemann-integrable-half-space-extensions. For n=0, a connected chart is a point p, and set Ip(ω)=ε(p)ω(p) using its determinant-line sign. Empty support gives zero. Negative charts are allowed: the upper-half-line chart u=bt at the right endpoint of an increasing interval has sign 1.

[F2]

Form calculus extends locally across a manifold boundary: On smooth manifolds with boundary, the coordinate exterior derivative, pullback naturality, graded Leibniz rule, support containment, and Cartan identity hold for smooth forms: d(Fα)=F(dα),d(αβ)=dαβ+(1)degααdβ, suppdαsuppα,LXα=d(ιXα)+ιXdα. For arbitrary smooth vector fields at boundary points, LX is defined by local Euclidean extensions; a two-sided flow inside the manifold is not required.

[F3]

A continuous function on a closed rectangle has repeated Riemann integrals in every coordinate order, all equal to its multiple integral: Let Q=j<n[aj,bj]Rn, where n1 and every aj<bj. If f:QR is continuous, then for every permutation of the coordinates the corresponding repeated Riemann integral exists and equals Qf.

[F4]

Newton–Leibniz needs only continuity on [a,b], differentiability on (a,b), and a Riemann-integrable extension of the interior derivative: Let a<b. Suppose G:[a,b]R is continuous on [a,b] and differentiable on (a,b). If f:[a,b]R is Riemann integrable and f(x)=G(x)(a<x<b), then abf=G(b)G(a). No derivative of G at either endpoint is assumed, and the two endpoint values assigned to the integrable extension f do not enter the conclusion.

Proof

Given: The objects and hypotheses in the statement above.

1.1

Write η=i=1naidx1dxi^dxn. The coordinate formula gives dη=i(1)i1iaidx1dxn. Choose R>0 with the support inside (R,R)n, so all ai vanish near the outer faces.

2.1

Each derivative coefficient is continuous on the nondegenerate cube. Repeated Riemann integration may put xi first. Its integral along that coordinate is ai(,R,)ai(,R,)=0 by the fundamental theorem. Thus every term integrates to zero.

3.1

The chart definition and linearity give the asserted zero sum. For n=1 there is one coefficient and the omitted wedge is the scalar one, so this is just the endpoint difference. Empty support and η=0 give the same identity.

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.
