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.

Left-invariant vector fields evaluate isomorphically at the identity

Statement

Assume ACω. Let XL(G) and XR(G) be the real vector spaces of left- and right-invariant smooth vector fields on a Lie group G. Evaluation at the identity gives linear isomorphisms

eveL:XL(G)TeG

and

eveR:XR(G)TeG.

Their respective inverses send vTeG to

vgL=d(Lg)e(v)andvgR=d(Rg)e(v).

The countable-choice assumption is used exactly through the supplied invariant-field and smooth translation-trivialization results.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: ACω, a Lie group G with identity e, and a vector vTeG.

[F1]

ACω is countable choice. The Axiom of Countable Choice (ACω).

[F2]

Invariance is equivalent to the appropriate identity-value formula. Left- and right-invariant vector fields.

[F3]

The maps (g,v)d(Lg)e(v) and (g,v)d(Rg)e(v) are smooth vector-bundle isomorphisms. Translations are diffeomorphisms and their differentials trivialize the tangent bundle.

Proof

technique · direct
1.1

Pointwise addition and scalar multiplication preserve smooth vector fields. Because each differential d(Lg)h is linear, they also preserve left invariance; the same holds on the right. Thus XL(G) and XR(G) are real vector spaces, and evaluation at e is linear on each.

F2algebra
1.2

Fix vTeG. The map g(g,v) is a smooth section of the product bundle G×TeG. Composing it with the left trivialization in [F3] shows that vgL=d(Lg)e(v) is a smooth vector field. Its identity-value formula makes it left invariant by [F2], and veL=d(Le)e(v)=v.

2.1

Conversely, [F2] forces every XXL(G) to satisfy Xg=d(Lg)e(Xe) at every g. Hence X=(Xe)L, so vvL and eveL are mutually inverse linear maps.

2.2

Replacing the left trivialization by the right trivialization in [F3] gives a smooth field vgR=d(Rg)e(v). The right identity-value characterization in [F2] proves invariance and uniqueness, while Re=idG gives veR=v. Thus vvR is the inverse of eveR.

3.1

A Lie group is nonempty. If dimG=0, then TeG=0 and both invariant-field spaces contain only the zero field, so both evaluation maps are the unique zero-dimensional isomorphisms; dimension one needs no change. No metric or nondegeneracy condition occurs, and the group is boundaryless by convention. The stated ACω is inherited through [F2] and [F3]; fixing the supplied vector v and performing pointwise linear operations adds no choice. The theorem asserts two explicit isomorphisms, not a biconditional.

Dependency tree · two levels

14 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.
