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.

Meagre master codes are below summable slaloms

Statement

Let Smn be the good clopen array of A good clopen family for summable slaloms and put Mfgood=2ω∖lim sup⁡nSf(n)n for f∈ωω. These sets form an inclusion-cofinal subfamily of the meagre ideal. There are Borel maps u:ωω→S and v:S→ωω such that u(f)⊆∗T⟹Mfgood⊆Mv(T)good. Thus the meagre master family is below the summable slalom order in the ideal-inclusion morphism sense.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The fixed good clopen array and repeating basic cylinders Un.

[F1]

Every Smn meets Un; some Smn is contained in any specified dense open set; and any at most 2n members in row n have intersection meeting Un. (A good clopen family for summable slaloms)

[F2]

A Borel family of meagre sections admits Borel-selected closed nowhere-dense covers. (Uniform closed nowhere-dense covers for Borel meagre sections)

[F3]

Meagre master codes are inclusion-cofinal. The summable slalom space is Borel in its product code. (Null and meagre master codes are cofinal, Borel master codes for null and meagre sets)

[F4]

Baire-space and Cantor-space parameters admit fixed Borel coding. (Cantor and Baire sequence spaces and coordinate codings)

Proof

technique · special cofinal meagre codes and a finite-intersection morphism
1.1

For each f, every tail union ⋃n≥mSf(n)n is dense open: a given basic cylinder U equals Un for some n≥m, and Sf(n)n meets it by [F1]. Hence Mfgood is meagre. It is represented by a code of Borel master codes for null and meagre sets: at master stage m, enumerate the basic cylinders contained in that dense open tail union. This enumeration is Borel in f because the tail union is a coded countable union of clopens and inclusion of a compact cylinder in it is a finite-subcover test.

1.2

If A is meagre, take closed nowhere-dense Fj with A⊆⋃jFj. For each n, the complement of ⋃j≤nFj is dense open, so choose the least m=f(n) such that Smn lies in that complement, using [F1]. Every y∈A belongs to some Fj and therefore misses Sf(n)n for all n≥j; hence A⊆Mfgood. This proves cofinality.

F1
1.3

Define u(f)(n)={f(n)}, a slalom since ∑n2−n<∞. For T∈S, summability implies ∣T(n)∣≤2n for every sufficiently large n. Let r(T) be the least integer beyond which this holds; it is Borel because the condition is a countable conjunction of coordinate tests. Put Wn(T)=⋂i∈T(n)Sin for n≥r(T), and put Wn(T)=2ω for earlier n. Empty intersections are the whole space. By [F1], each Wn(T) for n≥r(T) meets Un. Therefore every tail union ⋃n≥mWn(T) is dense open, and LT=2ω∖lim sup⁡nWn(T) is meagre. Its membership relation is Borel in (T,y) because each Wn(T) is a finite clopen intersection with Borel dependence on T.

1.4

Code the Borel slalom parameter space in a Cantor parameter space via [F4], extending LT by empty sections outside its coded domain. Apply [F2] to get Borel closed nowhere-dense codes Fj(T) with LT⊆⋃jFj(T). Set v(T)(n) to be the least m such that Smn∩⋃j≤nFj(T)=∅. The complement of that finite union is dense open, so [F1] gives such an m. For a Borel-coded closed set, disjointness from a fixed clopen set is a Borel finite-subcover test on its open complement; hence v is Borel. If y∈LT, then y∈Fj(T) for some j, and it misses Sv(T)(n)n whenever n≥j. Thus LT⊆Mv(T)good.

2.1

If u(f)⊆∗T, then f(n)∈T(n) eventually and Wn(T)⊆Sf(n)n eventually. Hence lim sup⁡nWn(T)⊆lim sup⁡nSf(n)n and, on taking complements, Mfgood⊆LT⊆Mv(T)good. This is the required Borel morphism. The special family is cofinal by step 1.2, so it is an eligible cofinal master family for ideal inequalities. ∎
