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.

Rn is locally compact and σ-compact

Statement

For n≥1, Euclidean space Rn is locally compact and σ-compact.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: Rn with n≥1, its origin 0, and its Euclidean norm.

[L3]

For every real M there is a natural k≥1 with M<k⋅1R (Every complete ordered field is Archimedean).

Proof

technique · constructive
1.1L1L2

For x∈Rn, the closed ball B‾2(x,1) is compact by [L1] and contains the open ball B2(x,1) about x. Thus x has a compact neighbourhood.

1.2L1construct

For each k∈N put Kk:=B‾2(0,k+1). Every Kk is compact by [L1].

2.1L3step 1.2choose

If x∈Rn, [L3] gives k≥1 with ∥x∥2<k, so x∈Kk. Hence Rn=⋃k∈NKk.

3.1L2step 1.1step 2.1discharge-construct∎

Step 1.1 gives local compactness and step 2.1 gives σ-compactness.
