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 Dieudonne club-set function is a Borel measure
Statement
Assume and put . For a Borel set , define Then is a probability measure on . Its extension to given by is a Borel probability measure.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: has the order topology and holds.
Countable intersections of club subsets of are club. (Countable intersections of club subsets of omega_1 are club)
Proof
Let be the sets for which either or contains a club. Two disjoint sets cannot both contain clubs, since two clubs intersect by [L1]. Complements preserve . For a sequence , if some contains a club then so does ; otherwise each complement contains a club and [L1] puts a club in the complement of the union. Thus is a sigma-algebra.
Every open belongs to : if the closed complement is unbounded, it is club; if it is bounded by , then the tail is a club contained in . Hence .
On , the displayed - rule is countably additive. Indeed, among pairwise disjoint at most one has value ; if none does, the intersection of club subsets of their complements is club by [L1], so their union has value . Also . Restriction is a sigma-homomorphism from to , proving the assertion for .

18 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.
