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.

The induced outer measure agrees with the premeasure on the source algebra

Statement

For every AA0, the outer measure induced by a premeasure satisfies μ(A)=μ0(A).

Facts & Assumptions

Given: A premeasure μ0 on an algebra A0 and its induced outer measure μ.

[F1]

A premeasure on an algebra A0 vanishes at the empty set and is countably additive whenever a disjoint sequence in A0 has its union in A0. (Premeasures on algebras of sets)

[L1]

Every countable algebra cover of an algebra set disjointifies inside that set into algebra members subordinate to the original cover. (A countable algebra cover disjointifies inside the covered algebra set)

[F2]

The set function induced by μ0 assigns EX the infimum of kμ0(Ak) over all countable algebra covers EkAk. (The outer set function induced by a premeasure)

Proof

technique · direct
1.1

The sequence (A,,,) covers A at cost μ0(A), so μ(A)μ0(A).

F2construct
1.2

For any algebra cover (Ak) of A, [L1] gives disjoint BkAk with union A; [F1] gives μ0(A)=kμ0(Bk), and finite additivity applied to Ak=Bk(AkBk) gives μ0(Bk)μ0(Ak), hence μ0(A)kμ0(Ak).

F1L1algebra
2.1

Since step 1.2 bounds every covering cost below by μ0(A), [F2] gives μ0(A)μ(A); combining this with step 1.1 proves equality, including infinite values without subtraction.

Remarks

No choice principle is used here. Steps 1.1, 1.2 and 2.1 read the defining infimum of The outer set function induced by a premeasure, disjointify one given cover, and apply countable additivity of the premeasure; none of them selects a cover for each index. The name outer measure is the one that Assuming countable choice, the outer set function induced by a premeasure is an outer measure earns for the induced set function under countable choice, and the identity proved here holds for the set function whether or not that hypothesis is in force.
