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.
Weil formula with a rho-function
Statement
Assume AC. For fixed left Haar measures and any rho-function there is a unique Radon measure on such that for every . It has full support.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: LCH , closed , fixed left Haar measures , a rho-function , and AC.
The convention is , and rho covariance is (Rho-function for a closed subgroup).
The averaging map is onto; its proof also constructs nonnegative lifts and lifts whose averages equal on a prescribed compact quotient set (Compact lifts and averaging onto C_c(G/H)).
Positive integrations against compactly supported continuous kernels on LCH spaces commute (Compactly supported kernels admit commuting radon integrals).
Every positive functional on , for LCH, is represented by a Radon measure (Positive functionals on C_c(X) are integration against a Radon measure).
Two Radon measures agreeing on agree on all Borel sets under DC (Assuming Dependent Choice, uniqueness of the RMK representing measure among Radon measures).
Inversion changes left Haar integration by for nonnegative Borel (Haar change of variables under inversion).
AC implies DC (AC implies DC implies countable choice).
AC is assumed in its choice-function form (The Axiom of Choice).
Any point of an open subset of an LCH space admits a nonnegative compactly supported continuous bump contained in that open set (LCH Urysohn cutoff).
Proof
For , the kernel has compact support in : its support lies in . Thus [F3] permits interchanging the two integrations. Right-translation change of variables in , [F1], and inversion in using [F6] give Explicitly, the inner integral at becomes ; integrating this in and applying [F6] gives .
Define . If , let and choose with on , as supplied by the compact-set lift construction in [F2]. The identity in step 1.1 gives . Thus is well defined. If , choose a nonnegative lift with using [F2]; then .
By [F4] and [F7], is represented by a Radon measure , and [F5] makes it unique. The defining identity for is the displayed Weil formula. For any nonempty open , [F8] gives a nonzero nonnegative supported in . Choose the nonnegative lift from [F2]. Since is nonzero, is positive at some point and hence on a nonempty open subset of . A nonzero left Haar measure has full support: its support is nonempty, closed, and invariant under every left translation, so it is all of . The positive continuous weight therefore gives . The Weil identity implies , proving full support. ∎
