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.

Fair-coin measure on binary sequences

Statement

Assume countable choice. There is a unique Borel probability p on binary sequence space such that a cylinder prescribing k distinct coordinates has mass 2k. Its completion is a complete probability measure on the completion of the Borel sigma-algebra.

Facts & Assumptions

[F1]

The cylinder-algebra content is a finite premeasure. Fair-coin cylinder content is a premeasure.

[F2]

Under countable choice the premeasure extends to its generated sigma-algebra. Assuming countable choice, a premeasure extends through its induced outer measure.

[F4]

Under countable choice the Borel probability has a complete extension on its completion domain. Assuming countable choice, every measure space has a unique complete extension to its completion.

Proof

Given: Assume countable choice. There is a unique Borel probability p on binary sequence space such that a cylinder prescribing k distinct coordinates has mass 2k. Its completion is a complete probability measure on the completion of the Borel sigma-algebra.

1.1

The prefix cylinders form a countable base: length m has exactly 2m possible prefixes, enumerated by the binary integers from 0 to 2m1, and the pairs of length and index admit a diagonal enumeration. Every cylinder is open, and every open set is the union of the subfamily of prefix cylinders contained in it. It follows that the sigma-algebra generated by the cylinder algebra is exactly the metric Borel sigma-algebra.

F1
2.1

Apply the extension theorem to the premeasure p_0. It gives a Borel measure p agreeing with every cylinder mass and with p(Ω)=p0(Ω)=1. Any other measure with these cylinder masses agrees on finite disjoint unions by finite additivity, hence on the entire algebra; finite-premeasure uniqueness makes it equal to p.

3.1

The completion theorem gives a complete probability extending p, since the whole-space mass remains one. Countable choice is used by the cited extension and completion constructions; the preceding finite-algebra and compactness arguments themselves were choice-free. This constructs this particular binary measure, not a general infinite product measure.

25 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.
