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.
Comparison and absolute comparison tests for improper multiple integrals
Statement
For locally integrable , comparison on compact subsets gives the same inequality for improper integrals:
If and , then is absolutely improperly integrable.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: An open set and locally Riemann-integrable functions with the pointwise inequalities in the Statement.
Every compact Jordan exhaustion computes a nonnegative improper integral (Every Jordan exhaustion computes a nonnegative improper multiple integral).
A signed function is improperly integrable precisely when the nonnegative improper integral of its absolute value is finite (Improper multiple integrals and absolute convergence on open sets).
Proper Riemann integrals on a nondegenerate rectangle preserve pointwise inequalities (Linearity, monotonicity, the absolute-value estimate and coordinate-slice additivity for the Riemann integral in ).
The integral over a bounded Jordan set is the bounding-rectangle integral of the zero extension (The Riemann integral of a bounded function over a bounded Jordan measurable set).
Proof
On every compact Jordan , extend and by zero to one bounding rectangle. Their zero extensions satisfy the same pointwise inequalities, so [L3] and [L4] give ; taking the defining suprema, equivalently using [L1] on any exhaustion, gives .
If and is finite, step 1.1 applied to gives , so [L2] gives absolute improper integrability of .

22 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.
