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 generation of the multipoint Jacobi quotient
Statement
Let and let be C1-cofinite, quasi-finite-dimensional grading-restricted generalized modules with real weights over a conformal vertex algebra of CFT type. Put The Jacobi-relation submodule defined explicitly below has the following properties: there is a real such that , and the latter weight-cutoff space is finite dimensional. In particular is finitely generated over . Every scalar coefficient of a composable product of logarithmic intertwining operators with inputs and target annihilates , when interpreted in its formal radial expansion. For each fixed tuple of inputs and each , there are and , independent of the intertwiners, such that its scalar coefficient satisfies in the formal radial expansion. No assertion of analytic convergence or regular singularities is made.
For notation write for applying an operator to tensor factor and leaving the other factors alone; . For a homogeneous , , let be the opposite mode on any factor, equivalently the adjoint of the ordinary mode on its contragredient. Define the finite-on-each-vector conjugated operator The middle conjugation is multiplication of by the integral power ; thus this definition uses no branch on module weights. Let be the -span of the following vectors for all such and all :

Proof
Every displayed sum is finite on . For ordinary this is module truncation; for it is upper truncation of the opposite field. The operator is locally nilpotent on each module because it lowers real weight by one and the weights are bounded below. Hence both exponentials in are finite on the vector where they act, and the sum is finite after the right exponential is expanded. Expanding gives Laurent-polynomial scalar coefficients: a term has weight shift . Thus the three families are actual elements of .
Choose finite homogeneous representatives for . They exist because is graded and the quotient is finite dimensional. Choose at least the largest sum of weights in . Decompose each factor as a representative plus a sum of terms. Consequently every homogeneous tensor of weight is a sum of tensors with at least one such factor; any term with all representative factors has weight at most and hence cannot occur in its weight- component.
Reduce a factor with by , the last factor by , or factor zero by . The designated term has total weight , where is the weight before insertion. Every other term of or has weight either or , hence strictly less. In , step 1.1 shows that every finite-factor term has weight and its last term has weight . All changes are integral, and all tensor weights have a common real lower bound. Thus each sequence of reductions terminates after finitely many strict integer weight decreases. Applying step 1.2 at each remaining weight above proves . This argument needs no induction over a nondiscrete ordering of real numbers.
For completeness the annihilation assertion uses actual Jacobi residues rather than an arbitrary quotient. Insert the current into the formal product of intertwiners. Apply intertwiner Jacobi successively across each insertion; it equates the expansion at infinity paired with with the sum of residues at and . Take the residue with multiplier . At infinity its expansion is ; at , , its expansion is ; at zero it is . At the residue is . Pairing the infinity expansion transposes ordinary modes to on . These four contributions are precisely , since . Taking multiplier instead gives , by the expansion at . All equalities are formal residues of Jacobi with the displayed binomial expansions, so no analytic contour deformation is assumed.
If is a lower weight bound for , each factor of a tensor of total weight at most has weight at most . Its span is therefore contained in the tensor product of finitely many finite cutoff spaces, finite dimensional by F1 (use a strict cutoff larger by one). Choose a finite basis of that subspace. Its image generates over , proving finite generation.
Apply the same residue after changing the global coordinate to , interchanging zero and infinity. The finite insertion coordinates become ; their state transformation is and its inverse. F2 gives the exact conjugation of the local action as ; the coefficient is . The infinity and zero terms are respectively on and on . Thus this residue is exactly . Steps 2.2 and 3.2 prove annihilation of every generator, and -linearity in its specified radial expansion proves annihilation of .
The field is Noetherian, since its only ideals are zero and itself. Iterating the polynomial result and localizing at the multiplicative system of coordinates and their differences makes Noetherian. For fixed set . Its -span is a submodule of the finite module in step 3.1, hence is finitely generated. Express finitely many generators as finite combinations of the , and let be at least every index that occurs. Thus generate that span and for some . Applying the coefficient map from steps 2.2–2.2 and using the derivative identity of each intertwiner turns into . This proves the claimed scalar differential equations as formal identities. It gives no pole-order estimate for their coefficients at a boundary divisor.
