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.
Cameron–Martin translation formula for a separable Banach Gaussian
Statement
Assume AC and countable choice. Let be a centered Borel Gaussian random element in a real separable Banach space , with law and covariance RKHS . For , let be the -limit of the coordinate functions representing a sequence of classes in the completion . The limit has a Borel-measurable version and does not depend on the approximating sequence. If denotes the law of , then In particular, and are equivalent. If for , then -almost surely and ; these formulas are independent of the choice of representative .
Facts & Assumptions
AC and countable choice are the explicit Gaussian-construction and countable-coordinate assumptions (The Axiom of Choice, The Axiom of Countable Choice ()).
Under AC, the real dominated-extension theorem supplies the Hahn–Banach principle HB used by the dual-norming interface (Hahn-Banach dominated extension theorem for real vector spaces, The real dominated-extension principle as an additional hypothesis over ZF).
The quotient completion embeds injectively into , and (The Banach Gaussian covariance and RKHS construction is well-defined).
Finite families of continuous coordinates of are multivariate Gaussian, with characteristic function determined by their covariance (Multivariate normal law, including singular covariance, Characteristic function of a multivariate normal law).
Countable norming coordinates determine Borel laws on (A separable Banach space has a countable norming family, A countable norming family determines Borel laws).
The standard normal density is and its characteristic function is (Standard normal and normal laws, Characteristic function of a multivariate normal law).
For square-integrable real random variables, (Cauchy-Schwarz for random variables).
over the Borel probability space is complete, and its elements are classes of Borel-measurable functions ( with the integral pairing is a Hilbert space).
Proof
Given: AC, countable choice, a centered Borel Gaussian random element in , its law , covariance RKHS , and an arbitrary .
On the dense quotient , define as an element of . The definition of the inner product makes an isometry, so it extends to an isometry by completeness [F6]. Let and choose in the quotient completion; put . Since is formed from Borel-measurable functions on , choose a Borel-measurable representative of its class. Approximation in gives uniqueness up to -null sets, with . For fixed , set and . Each is centered multivariate Gaussian by [F2]. Cauchy–Schwarz [F5] gives , , and . Thus their covariance matrices converge entrywise to the positive-semidefinite covariance matrix of . For each , . By [F2], , so the characteristic function of is , the characteristic function of . Uniqueness in [F2] proves that is jointly Gaussian. Finally, its mixed covariances satisfy by [F1].
Choose a countable norming family for using [A1, A2], and put . By [F2], for every finite subvector , the joint vector is a linear image of a finite standard Gaussian vector. For one standard coordinate and real , completing the square in [F4]'s density gives . Multiplying these identities over the independent standard coordinates and using the covariances from step 1.1 gives At this also gives . Since is finite almost surely, almost surely, so is a probability equivalent to . The displayed function is the characteristic function of . Thus and the law of have the same finite-dimensional pushforwards under a countable norming family.
By [F3], equality of those pushforwards implies on all Borel sets, proving the Radon–Nikodym identity. Positivity of gives equivalence. If , then and ; if , the well-definedness theorem gives , so both the scalar representative and its variance agree almost surely.
