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.

Declared local state-sum sewing input

Physical scope

An explicit local CFT sewing/factorization assumption on a chosen one-node collar; it does not prove sewing for a model or assert global unitarity.

Definition

A declared local state-sum sewing input for one closed collar consists of a complex graded intermediate state space H, a nondegenerate bilinear pairing, and specified paired weight eigenvectors (eα,eα)α∈I with ⟨eα,eβ⟩=δα β. The index set I is finite or countable. Completeness means that these paired vectors give the prescribed identity expansion on the model's stated state domain; for an infinite basis the topology and domain on which this expansion converges are supplied data. For a holomorphic family the vectors, pairings and domains are supplied at each parameter value. A model requiring an uncountable spectral integral must instead supply its own measure/integral sewing input.

Fix all other component moduli and external insertions. Supply an open continuation domain D⊆Cd, a parameter λ∈D, the sector, holomorphic dimensionless eigenweights hα(λ),hˉα(λ), and fixed intercepts a,aˉ. The bar labels the independent right-moving weight, not complex conjugation in λ. Set δα=hα−a, δˉα=hˉα−aˉ, dα=δα−δˉα, and Δα=(δα+δˉα)/2. A term is level matched when dα=0; then Δα=δα=δˉα is its level-matched exponent. Supply linear component amplitude functionals AL( ⋅ ;λ) and AR( ⋅ ;λ) on the indicated paired state domains, with holomorphic paired coefficients Cα(λ):=AL(eα;λ)AR(eα;λ). Any graded pairing signs are included in this declared contraction.

Choose 0<ϵ<1 and a branch q=reiθ with 0<r<ϵ and θ0≤θ<θ0+2π, omitting the cut of planar measure zero. Supply the scalar collar coefficient F(q,λ) after all other insertions and differentials are fixed. The sewing assumption is the equality F(q,λ)=∑α∈ICα(λ)Pα(q,λ),Pα(q,λ):=exp⁡(2Δα(λ)log⁡r+iθdα(λ)). The full collar density is F(q,λ)d2q/∣q∣2, with d2q=dx dy and dimensionless q; thus Pα=qδαqˉδˉα is exactly the supplied propagator coefficient. For a countable basis require absolute and locally uniform convergence jointly in q and λ on compact subsets of this punctured branch collar times D. For a single-valued closed channel additionally require integer dα; angular projection is used only under that condition.

For every compact parameter set K⊂D, require the explicit set SK:={α∈I:Δα(λ)=0 for some λ∈K} to be finite. Define the remainder coefficient, with the same reference measure as F, by RK(q,λ):=F(q,λ)−∑α∈SKCα(λ)Pα(q,λ)=∑α∉SKCα(λ)Pα(q,λ). Require a measurable majorant GK(q)≥0 with ∣RK(q,λ)∣≤GK(q) for every λ∈K and ∫0<∣q∣<ϵGK(q)d2q/∣q∣2<∞. The integrated remainder is the absolutely convergent scalar integral HK(λ):=∫0<∣q∣<ϵRK(q,λ)d2q/∣q∣2 for λ∈K; require it to be the restriction of a supplied holomorphic function on an open neighborhood of K in D, agreeing with the integral wherever that integral is defined there. These are separate hypotheses: avoiding zeros of Δα does not by itself imply integrability. For finite I the series convergence is automatic, but the same remainder and continuation requirements remain. The sewing equality and all analytic conditions are per-model inputs, not consequences of the name CFT.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: A single CFT collar with zw=q, a state pairing, and the component amplitudes, holomorphic paired coefficients, and convergence domain named in the Definition.

[F1]

Plumbing family for punctured Riemann surfaces fixes the local plumbing coordinate but does not assert an analytic CFT sewing theorem.

[F2]

String vertex datum and covariant insertion supplies the declared local vertex-state interface; on-shell/BRST membership is separately required for physical interpretations.

[F3]

String channel propagator on a plumbing collar fixes the collar powers, logarithmic coordinate, and branch/intercept convention used by the assumed state-sum equality.

[A1]

The equality of the collar correlator with the complete convergent state-pairing sum is adopted as a local model input. This batch has no general theorem proving that axiom for arbitrary worldsheet CFTs.

Proof

1.1givenF1F2F3A1algebra

The definition fixes the state space, pairing, basis, component coefficients, and explicit sewing equality, so every symbol in the local collar state sum has a declared domain and convention. Its analytic-continuation clause makes each paired coefficient holomorphic, while the local-uniform convergence clause controls the collar sum on the stated punctured annulus. The integrable-majorant and integrated-remainder clauses separately make the nonresonant contribution holomorphic, rather than an uncontrolled boundary sum.

2.1givenF1F2F3step 1.1algebraA1∎

Because the collar relation and propagator factor are supplied by [F1] together with the chosen intercept/branch data, the input determines a unique local state-sum expression once its basis and coefficients are fixed. It makes no assertion that a given CFT satisfies [A1]; that must be checked for that CFT before using the theorem that follows.

Remarks

This is an explicit conditional interface introduced to expose the planned theorem's local sewing hypothesis. It is not a duplicate proof of CFT sewing convergence and is not a global string-field or S-matrix construction.
