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.
Measurable integration extends smooth density integration
Statement
For a nonnegative Borel and any chart partition , with values in and all zero-times-infinity products equal to zero. For positive smooth and compactly supported smooth real , this equals the smooth density integral . For real or complex the same chart formula holds, interpreted by real and imaginary positive and negative parts; the series converges absolutely. On the completion, nonnegative measurable functions and real or complex functions have Borel representatives modulo completed null sets, and the formulas are applied to those representatives.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: Assume . Manifolds are Hausdorff, second countable and smooth, with boundary allowed; is allowed unless excluded. Densities are pointwise Borel, , and . Borel-first integration, signed absolute convergence, smooth compact support and completion.

Every nonnegative measurable function is the increasing limit of simple measurable functions: Every nonnegative measurable function is the increasing limit of nonnegative simple functions.
Monotone convergence for the integral: Nonnegative increasing pointwise limits commute with integration.
Integral of a compactly supported smooth density: The smooth compact-support integral is the finite sum of Riemann integrals of zero-extended weighted chart coefficients; in dimension zero it is the finite scalar sum.
Riemann-integrable half-space extensions of chart coefficients: A smooth chart coefficient with compact support has bounded Riemann-integrable zero extension, including boundary charts.
Borel Darboux integrands in finite dimension: A bounded Borel Riemann-integrable coefficient on a nondegenerate n-box has equal Lebesgue and Riemann integrals.
Integrable real and complex functions, and their integrals: Absolute integrability permits real and imaginary positive/negative part integrals.
The completion domain and proposed completed set function of a measure space: A completed measurable set differs from a Borel set inside a Borel null set.
Assuming countable choice, every measure space has a unique complete extension to its completion: The completion is a complete measure extending the Borel measure under countable choice.
A nonnegative integral over a null set vanishes: Nonnegative integrals over measurable null sets vanish.
Two integrable functions are equal almost everywhere exactly when all of their indefinite integrals agree: Integrable functions equal almost everywhere have equal integrals over every measurable set.
Additivity of the nonnegative Lebesgue integral: The nonnegative integral is additive, including infinite values.
Monotonicity and nonnegative homogeneity of the nonnegative integral: Nonnegative integration is homogeneous and monotone.
Proof
For , with Borel, the left side is and the right side is its defining chart sum. For a nonnegative simple function on disjoint Borel sets, finite additivity and homogeneity of the nonnegative integral give the formula term by term; a finite sum interchanges with the nonnegative chart sum. Coefficients contribute zero even when .
Take nonnegative simple Borel . For each chart, , where . This also holds if : a positive limiting value of forces an eventually positive , whereas a zero limit makes every zero. Monotone convergence on and each chart, followed by for increasing nonnegative , proves the formula. The last identity follows by taking finite chart sums first and then their supremum.
For real or complex Borel with , apply the nonnegative formula to . It gives , so every chart term is integrable and the sum of their absolute integrals is finite. Apply the formula separately to , or to the four positive/negative real/imaginary parts. Subtraction now involves only finite numbers and produces the asserted absolutely convergent series. Where and the weighted absolute integrand is infinite only on a Lebesgue-null set: for and every integer , , forcing ; one may set the signed coefficient to zero there. This leaves each part integral unchanged.
Let be measurable for the completed measure. Choose increasing completed-simple . For each of the countably many level sets in these simple functions, the completion definition supplies a Borel replacement with symmetric difference contained in a Borel null set. Countable choice selects these replacements; their exceptional Borel sets have a null union . The replacement simple functions are nonnegative Borel and equal off . Put off and zero on . Then is increasing Borel, and is Borel and equals off . Applying monotone convergence to , whose Borel and completed integrals agree by the extension property, gives equality of the Borel and completed integrals of . The null-set integral property gives . Thus the chart formula for computes the completed integral, including infinity.
Now let be positive smooth and smooth with compact support . Local finiteness of the partition supports gives a finite subfamily meeting : finitely many neighborhoods witnessing local finiteness cover . Each coefficient of is smooth with compact support inside its chart. Its zero extension is bounded and Riemann integrable by the chart extension result; it is Borel because it is smooth on a Borel chart image and zero elsewhere. A bounding nondegenerate box and the local Darboux bridge identify its Riemann and Lebesgue integrals. There are only finitely many terms; their absolute integrals are finite by boundedness and bounded support. The nonnegative formula of step 2.1 applied to therefore shows is integrable, so step 3.1 applies and the sum equals the defining smooth integral.
In dimension zero, compact sets are finite: the singleton open cover has a finite subcover. The preceding smooth comparison is then the same finite sum in both definitions. Empty , the zero function, and empty all give zero. A singleton of weight one integrates to its value.
For completed real or complex functions apply the same construction to each nonnegative component and subtract, redefining on the exceptional Borel null set to get a finite-valued Borel representative. Its absolute integral is unchanged, so step 3.1 applies. Two Borel representatives differ inside a Borel null set ; the nonnegative chart formula for makes each chart contribution of zero. Null-set invariance, and for also almost-everywhere equality, show independence of every representative choice.
