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.
Completeness of the weighted continuous trajectory space
Statement
Assume Countable Choice. Let be a probability space, , and . Use the Euclidean norm of The Euclidean inner product on . Let be the space, modulo equality -almost everywhere, of jointly measurable maps whose paths are continuous for almost every label and whose time-supremum function is measurable, and for which In this formula and in , take the supremum on a measurable conull set where the relevant paths are continuous and extend it by zero off that set; equality almost everywhere means equality of whole paths outside one measurable null set. The seminorm identifies maps equal almost everywhere, and the induced distance is a metric on the quotient; it is complete.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: Countable Choice, a probability space , , and the norm and equivalence convention in the Statement.
Euclidean is complete for ( and for with the Euclidean metric are complete, componentwise from the Cauchy criterion in ).
Tonelli's theorem passes a sum of nonnegative measurable functions through the integral (Tonelli's theorem for nonnegative measurable functions on a sigma-finite product).
Completeness means every Cauchy sequence converges in the metric (Complete metric space: every Cauchy sequence converges in the space).
Countable Choice permits choosing one measurable representative for each member of a countable sequence of equivalence classes (The Axiom of Countable Choice ()).
The Euclidean norm has the triangle inequality, and the nonnegative integral preserves pointwise order and finite sums (Cauchy-Schwarz with its equality case, the triangle inequality for , the parallelogram law and polarisation, Monotonicity and nonnegative homogeneity of the nonnegative integral, Additivity of the nonnegative Lebesgue integral).
Countable suprema and pointwise limits of measurable real-valued functions are measurable (Sequential suprema, infima, limsup, liminf, and pointwise limits of measurable functions are measurable).
Sections of product-measurable functions are measurable, and the Borel sigma-algebra of a finite Euclidean product is the product of the coordinate Borel sigma-algebras (Every section of a product-measurable function is measurable, The Borel product of R^m and R^n is the Borel sigma-algebra of R^{m+n}).
A nonnegative measurable function with finite integral is finite almost everywhere (A nonnegative measurable function with finite integral is finite almost everywhere).
Proof
Let be Cauchy in . By [A1], choose measurable representatives and, for each representative, a measurable conull set on which its paths are continuous. Countable Choice gives these sets simultaneously; their intersection is conull. For a fixed countable dense set , continuity on gives Each fixed-time section of each coordinate is measurable by [F6], since coordinate projections are continuous, and the right side is measurable by [F5]. Define it to be zero on ; this is a measurable representative of the time-supremum difference, as prescribed in the Statement. Changing the conull set or the representative does not change its integral. Symmetry and the triangle inequality follow pointwise on a common conull set, and a zero distance forces the paths to agree almost everywhere: for a nonnegative measurable supremum with zero integral, for every . It is integrable because on it is bounded by the sum of the two given integrable path suprema.
Choose increasing indices successively as the least indices large enough that whenever . Put on and off . By step 1.1 each is measurable and . Thus is measurable by [F5], and Tonelli gives . By [F7], is measurable and conull. For every , the paths are uniformly Cauchy on .
Replace each selected representative by on and outside . These maps remain jointly measurable and represent the same equivalence classes. By [F1], for each their uniform limit is a continuous path ; set off . The coordinate projections of are measurable, so their pointwise limits are measurable by [F5]; [F6] makes the resulting map into jointly measurable. Its time-supremum function is measurable because its paths are continuous and the supremum equals the countable supremum over of measurable sections. On , ; off this difference is zero. Hence the integrable series tail bounds and tends to zero. Since has finite norm, [F4] gives .
Since the original sequence is Cauchy and its subsequence converges to , the triangle inequality gives : for any , first take with , then take beyond the Cauchy index so . Thus every Cauchy sequence converges, which is completeness by [F3].
