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.
Content and measure have the same null sets
Statement
For a subset of any metric space and finite ,
This is equality of null-set classes, not equality of the set functions.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The objects, conventions, and hypotheses in the statement above.
is the supremum of finite-scale contents, each at least the unrestricted content. Unnormalised Hausdorff measure
Proof
Suppose and . Given finite and , take a cover with cost less than . Each diameter is strictly below , so . Therefore every scale value is zero.
When , any nonempty member costs one. Content less than one forces the empty family, hence . All its scale values are zero. This deals with empty and singleton possibilities without division by the exponent.
If all finite-scale values vanish their supremum vanishes. Conversely, a zero supremum forces all those nonnegative values, and then the smaller unrestricted content, to vanish. These implications complete both equivalences.

Dependency tree · two levels
6 results within two dependency steps of this one, each drawn at its shortest distance from it. 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.
