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.

A stationary Reissner–Nordström charge mode does not decay to zero

Example

Work in the Λ=0 specialization of the linearized geometric electrovacuum system. Fix M>0, q0>0, R0>4M, and a length ℓ∗>0. Set the dimensionless parameter radius ϵ:=q0/(2ℓ∗) and q(λ):=q0+λℓ∗. Then q(λ)>q0/2>0 for ∣λ∣<ϵ. On the fixed exterior U=Rx0×(R0,∞)×S2, put fλ(r)=1−2Mr+q(λ)2r2,gλ=−fλ(dx0)2+fλ−1dr2+r2γS2,Fλ=−q(λ)r2dx0∧dr. Then h:=∂λgλ∣0 and f:=∂λFλ∣0 form a smooth stationary solution of the linearized geometric electrovacuum system at (g0,F0). Its electromagnetic perturbation is nonzero and its electric-flux variation through every outward coordinate sphere Sr is ∂λqe(Sr)∣0=ℓ∗. Thus this exact mode does not tend to zero in time at fixed r; an unqualified claim that every linearized component decays to zero without retaining or subtracting parameter modes is false.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: M>0, q0>0, R0>4M, ℓ∗>0, and the family and fixed exterior domain in the Example.

[F1]

Dyonic Reissner-Nordström metric and field domains: for electric charge q and zero magnetic charge, the geometric Reissner–Nordström metric and field are g=−f(dx0)2+f−1dr2+r2γS2 and F=−qr−2dx0∧dr.

[F2]

Full dyonic Reissner-Nordström electrovac verification: in the Λ=0 sector, for every real mass and electric charge, this datum solves dF=d(⋆gF)=0 and Ric⁡=2Q(F) wherever r>0 and f≠0.

[F3]

Geometric electrovac equations and flux normalization: qe(S)=(4π)−1∫S⋆gF for the specified oriented sphere.

[F4]

Lorentzian exterior calculus and Hodge star: (⋆gF)ab=12(volg)abcdFcd in the positive spacetime orientation.

[F5]

Pure-gauge and exact-family perturbations solve the linearized electrovacuum system: a smooth derivative of exact solutions on one fixed domain solves the linearized system.

[A1]

The geometric electrovac suppliers retain the background assumption ACω. No additional choice principle is used for this explicit parameter family. (The Axiom of Countable Choice (ACω))

Verification

Given: The constants and geometric field family in the Example, with λ dimensionless and q(λ) a length parameter.

For r>R0>4M, fλ(r)>1−2M/r>1/2, so the metric is Lorentzian and the fixed exterior domain avoids every zero of fλ. The parameter family is smooth on (−ϵ,ϵ)×U and is the qm=0 Reissner–Nordström family of [F1]. By [F2], every member is an exact geometric electrovacuum on the same U.

Differentiating the displayed formulas gives f˙0=2q0ℓ∗/r2, h=−f˙0 (dx0)2−f0−2f˙0 dr2,f=−ℓ∗r2dx0∧dr. These tensors are smooth on U, independent of x0, and f≠0. By [F5] the pair solves the linearized equations.

For any λ, on the fixed exterior fλ>1/2, so g00=−fλ−1, grr=fλ, and ∣det⁡g∣=r4sin⁡2θ. Hence volgλ=r2sin⁡θ dx0∧dr∧dθ∧dϕ. The two-form has (Fλ)0r=−q(λ)/r2, so (Fλ)0r=q(λ)/r2. Using the orientation in [F1] and the component Hodge formula [F4] gives ⋆gλFλ=q(λ)sin⁡θ dθ∧dϕ=q(λ)ωS2. The outward coordinate sphere has this positive area orientation, and direct integration in polar coordinates gives ∫SrωS2=∫02π∫0πsin⁡θ dθ dϕ=4π. By [F3], qe(Sr)=q(λ), so differentiating yields ∂λqe(Sr)∣0=ℓ∗>0. Since the nonzero component fx0r=−ℓ∗/r2 is independent of x0, it cannot converge to zero as time tends to either infinity at any fixed r>R0. This is a mathematical counterexample to universal componentwise decay without parameter-mode subtraction, not an assertion about physical observations or nonlinear stability.
