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.
Equatorial rotating ergosurface differs from horizon
Statement refuted
The outer stationary-limit set of the specified asymptotic time-translation field is always the same hypersurface as the outer KN Killing horizon. The example below refutes this universal identification in the selected ingoing model.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The selected ingoing KN model with , , , evaluated at the equator .
Specified time Killing stationary-limit set and geodesic constants: the current A-page proposition computes and the equatorial stationary-limit radius ; its terminology is fixed by the current vocabulary Definition.
KN Killing generators, surface gravity, area and potential: the current A-page proposition gives the outer root and its null Killing generator; its proof verifies the current exact horizon vocabulary.
Explicit rational and real power regimes: the nonnegative square roots in this example are uniquely defined.
The concrete choice satisfies and , so both displayed outer-root expressions are real; the equatorial angle is .
Counterexample
At , the norm in [F1] vanishes when . Since , its outer root is the real value .
The outer horizon radius in [F2] is . Put and . Then and . Since , we have , hence . Therefore these two level sets are distinct at the equator, refuting the universal claim.
At the equatorial horizon, [F1] gives , whereas [F2] gives a null horizon generator. Thus the stationary field itself is spacelike there and is not the horizon generator. On the rotation axis the displayed outer radii coincide; this is the boundary case and does not restore the universal claim. The deductions remain conditional on [F1-F2]'s stated interfaces.
Remarks
This is a mathematical comparison of two level sets for specified fields. It asserts no observation and no global event-horizon classification.
