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.
Assuming countable choice, the Carathéodory domain is the completion of the sigma-finite extension
Statement
Assume the Axiom of Countable Choice and let be a sigma-finite premeasure. The Carathéodory sigma-algebra of its induced outer measure is exactly the completion of under the extended measure, and the Carathéodory restriction equals the completed measure there.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: Countable choice, a sigma-finite premeasure, its induced outer measure , its generated extension , and the completion of that extension.
If the premeasure is sigma-finite and is Carathéodory measurable, there is with and . (Under sigma-finiteness, every Carathéodory measurable set differs from a generated measurable hull by a null set)
Assuming countable choice, an outer measure induced by a premeasure is regular, and every set has a measurable hull in . (Assuming countable choice, a premeasure-induced outer measure is regular with generated measurable hulls)
The Carathéodory measurable subsets form a sigma-algebra, and the restriction of the outer measure to it is a complete measure. (Carathéodory's theorem: measurable sets form a sigma-algebra carrying a complete measure)
Assume the Axiom of Countable Choice. Let be a measure space, and let be its completion construction. Then is a complete measure on extending . It is the unique complete measure on that extends . (Assuming countable choice, every measure space has a unique complete extension to its completion)
Assuming countable choice, the induced outer measure of a premeasure satisfies and , so its restriction to is a measure extending . (Assuming countable choice, a premeasure extends through its induced outer measure)
Proof
By [L3] the Carathéodory restriction is a complete measure, and by [L5] its sigma-algebra contains with the restriction there equal to ; so it is a complete measure extending . Therefore its sigma-algebra contains every set with , , and , so it contains the completion domain of [L4].
Conversely, let be Carathéodory measurable. By [L1] choose with and ; by [L2] choose a generated measurable hull of , so and .
Since , with and null, belongs to the completion domain. Thus the domains coincide, and [L4] identifies the two complete extensions of on that domain.
