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.

Finite shell support versus canonical Gaussian tails

Physical scope

Two operationally indistinguishable particles in a three-dimensional spherical-shell preparation compared with the matched-mean canonical ideal gas, conditional on Countable Choice for the marginal theorem; exact distributions only.

Example

Assume ACω as required by Finite spherical-shell gas and its exact marginal, and use its one-species rectangular-box model. Take d=3, N=2, D=6, mass m>0 in kg, and energy E>0 in joules, so the momentum radius is R=2mE in kg m s−1. A uniformly selected particle's three-momentum block (k=3) under the shell preparation has density f6,3(p)=4π2R31−∣p∣2R2,∣p∣<R, and zero for ∣p∣≥R. A canonical ideal gas with β=D/(2E)=3/E in J−1 has the same mean total energy but assigns positive probability to the annulus R<∣p⋆∣<2R for the uniformly selected particle's momentum p⋆.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: ACω, the one-species rectangular-box shell theorem Finite spherical-shell gas and its exact marginal with D=6,k=3,E>0, and the matched-mean canonical ideal-gas theorem Exact canonical and grand ideal-gas preparations.

[F1]

Finite spherical-shell gas and its exact marginal: assuming ACω, the uniformly selected particle's k-block shell marginal has density fD,k, concentrated in the closed radius-R ball with no boundary atom for k<D, and β=D/(2E) matches the canonical mean total energy.

[F2]

Exact canonical and grand ideal-gas preparations: in the massive canonical model each momentum component has a Gaussian density with positive variance m/β, hence the vector density is strictly positive on all of Rd.

[F3]

Gaussian, gamma and beta product integrals: Γ(s+1)=sΓ(s) and Γ(1/2)=π, so Γ(3)=2 and Γ(3/2)=π/2.

[A1]

Choose d=3, N=2, and k=3 in the one-species model.

Verification

1.1A1F1F3algebra

Substituting D=6,k=3 into [F1] gives exponent (6−3−2)/2=1/2 and coefficient Γ(3)/[Γ(3/2)(πR2)3/2]=4/(π2R3) using [F3]. This is the displayed density.

2.1F1F2step 1.1∎

The shell block has probability zero outside the radius-R ball by [F1]. The canonical Gaussian vector density from [F2] is positive throughout the nonempty annulus R<∣p⋆∣<2R, which has positive volume, so that event has positive canonical probability for a uniformly selected particle. Therefore the two finite momentum marginals differ.

Remarks

All distributions here are model predictions under their stated preparations. No observed counts or fitted parameters are involved.
