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.

Products of a measurable intensity over finite configurations are measurable

Statement

Let W and C(W) be as in Finite-window spatial observations and configurations, and let f:W→[0,∞) be finite-valued and Borel measurable. For η=∑i=1nδxi∈C(W), counting repeated locations with their multiplicities and taking the empty product to be 1, define Gf(η):=∏i=1nf(xi). Then Gf:C(W)→[0,∞) is measurable.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The finite-window configuration space, a finite-valued Borel function f, and the product Gf defined in the Statement.

[F1]

The sigma-algebra on C(W) is generated by the evaluation maps η↦η(B) for Borel B⊆W; each configuration is a finite sum of Dirac masses, with repetitions allowed. (Finite-window spatial observations and configurations)

[F2]

A nonnegative measurable function is the pointwise increasing limit of nonnegative simple measurable functions. (Every nonnegative measurable function is the increasing limit of simple measurable functions)

[F3]

If u,v are nonnegative measurable functions, then uv is measurable: for a≥0, {uv>a}=⋃q∈Q, q>0{u>q}∩{v>a/q}, and for a<0 the superlevel set is the whole space. Iterating this fact gives measurability of finite products. The identity uses the extended-product convention 0⋅(+∞)=0. (Extended-real-valued measurable functions)

Proof

Given: f is finite-valued and Borel measurable on W.

1.1givenF1F3construct

First suppose f is simple, with value cj≥0 on each member Bj of a finite Borel partition of W. Then Gf(η)=∏jcjη(Bj), using 00=1; every exponent is an evaluation map. For each fixed cj, the map m↦cjm on N0 is measurable: the inverse image of any Borel set is a union of the countable level sets {η(Bj)=m}. This also covers cj=0 with 00=1. The finite product is measurable by [F3].

2.1givenstep 1.1F2algebra∎

For general f, choose simple functions sm↑f by [F2]. If η=∑i=1nδxi, then Gsm(η)=∏i=1nsm(xi)↑∏i=1nf(xi)=Gf(η); the limit holds because the product has finitely many nonnegative factors, and it also holds for the empty configuration. Thus Gf is a pointwise limit of measurable functions from step 1.1 and is measurable.
