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.
The glued set function is a Borel measure
Statement
The set function of Countable partition construction of the Borel set function is a countably additive nonnegative Borel measure. No local integrability or sigma-finiteness of is required.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: Assume . Manifolds are Hausdorff, second countable and smooth, with boundary allowed; is allowed unless excluded. Densities are pointwise Borel, , and . Fixed gluing data and arbitrary disjoint Borel sequence.
Countable partition construction of the Borel set function: The set function is the sum of nonnegative weighted chart integrals.
The indefinite integral of a nonnegative measurable function is a measure: Integrating a fixed nonnegative measurable coefficient over measurable sets defines a measure.
Beppo Levi's theorem for nonnegative series: Integration commutes with a countable nonnegative sum.
Proof
For each chart set . This is nonnegative Borel. The set function is a measure: disjoint Borel sets have disjoint Borel chart images, and the indefinite-integral theorem supplies countable additivity there. In dimension zero it is a singleton weight times its indicator, hence also a measure, even for infinite weight.
For disjoint Borel , ; equivalently apply the nonnegative summation theorem to . For , both iterated sums equal : a finite selection in any row fits in some finite rectangle, and conversely every rectangle is bounded by either iterated sum. Consequently .
Every , so ; all values are nonnegative extended reals. Zero coefficients contribute zero, and a one-term family gives its chart measure. Thus the claimed Borel measure exists with no finiteness assumption.

Dependency tree · two levels
13 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.
