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.
Real-analytic functions are closed under sums, products and compositions, and under quotients where the denominator is nonzero
Statement
On open real domains, sums and products of real-analytic functions are real analytic. If is nonzero throughout the domain, then is real analytic. If and are real analytic, then is real analytic on .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: Real-analytic functions with compatible domains as in the statement.
Each function has a convergent local power-series representation at every point (A real-analytic function on an open subset of is locally represented by a convergent real power series).
Products are represented by Cauchy products, local reciprocals exist when the constant term is nonzero, and local compositions have convergent expansions (Inside the common radius the product of two power-series sums is represented by the Cauchy product of their coefficients, A convergent real power series with nonzero constant term has a convergent reciprocal power series on a smaller neighbourhood, A composition of convergent real power series has a convergent power-series expansion wherever the inner series maps a neighbourhood into the outer disk of convergence).
Proof
For sums and products, fix a point and choose local series for the functions by [L1]. Termwise addition gives a convergent series for the sum, while [L2] gives one for the product.
For a quotient, the denominator is nonzero at the point, so its local series has nonzero constant term. By [L2] it has a local reciprocal series, whose Cauchy product with the numerator series represents the quotient.
For a composition, centre the outer series at the inner value. The inner series then has zero constant term, and absolute convergence lets one shrink the radius until the sum of the absolute values of its nonconstant terms is smaller than the outer radius. The composition lemma in [L2] then supplies a local series.
The cases in steps 1.1--1.3 are precisely the operations in the statement. Each construction works at every point of the relevant open domain, so the definition [L1] proves all assertions.
