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.
Logarithmic skew symmetry and the tensor unit maps
Statement
Let be a strongly graded Möbius or conformal vertex algebra and strongly graded generalized modules. If is a grading-compatible logarithmic intertwining operator of type and , set The substitution sends to and to . Then is a grading-compatible logarithmic intertwining operator of type , with inverse .
The logarithmic intertwiners of type are precisely where is a grading-preserving module map commuting with the Möbius operators. The intertwiners of type are precisely The module field has integer powers, so this last formula is independent of the integer branch label.
Let be full, contain , and have the relevant representing -products. In the objectwise uniformly nilpotent setting of logarithmic reconstruction, these classifications give natural isomorphisms and with universal values For arbitrary , skew symmetry similarly gives a natural isomorphism with universal value when the logarithm at is chosen to be the logarithm at plus . With other endpoint logarithms, use that same lifted-logarithm evaluation of the reconstructed universal operator. Its inverse uses the reverse logarithm increment. No products of two intertwining operators or their analytic associativity are assumed here.

Facts & Assumptions
Given: The strong module gradings, the logarithmic Jacobi, derivative and Möbius identities, and the branch convention in the Statement.
Logarithmic intertwining operator supplies lower truncation with a bound independent of log degree in each integer exponent string, coefficientwise finite logarithmic polynomials, Jacobi and the three Möbius identities.
Strongly graded generalized module in the HLZ setting supplies lower truncation in each fixed auxiliary-degree weight string and the commutators and . Exponentials in this proof are interpreted componentwise; no global weight bound is assumed.
Logarithmic reconstruction and parallel transport of P(z)-products supplies the local reconstruction/evaluation bijection with a fixed logarithm in its stated objectwise uniformly nilpotent scope; P(z)-tensor product in a module category supplies the representing universal property. Only this bijection, not any associativity or braiding conclusion, is used.
Proof
Every coefficient of is finite: a contribution to a fixed exponent comes from an original exponent smaller by a nonnegative integer and the factor . Lower truncation in that exponent string bounds above. Each remaining coefficient is a finite logarithmic polynomial, and a fixed branch shift preserves that property. The same bound proves the new lower truncation; auxiliary degrees still add. The commutator ensures that coefficients have the required generalized output weights: on a fixed exponent the difference between the output and the sum of input weights is a finite combination of the two input nilpotent operators and log differentiation, all nilpotent on that coefficient. Thus the construction respects the generalized grading without any bound on all weight strings together.
Translation covariance gives , expanded in nonnegative powers of . This follows by solving the coefficientwise differential equation in from . Differentiating the definition of gives , since the substituted variable is also on complex powers and shifted logarithms. The original bracket makes this . This proves the required derivative identity with the correct swapped first input.
To prove the full swapped Jacobi identity, take original Jacobi with iterate variable , module-current variable , and intertwiner variable , using the chosen logarithm shift in the latter. Multiply by and move the output current through this exponential using Step 2.1. Its three delta factors become respectively Each equality is the formal delta reciprocity identity with its displayed numerator expansion, verified on Laurent monomials. In the first term delta substitution turns the output current into after conjugation; the other two terms are respectively and . Move the original iterate term to the left and the original second term to the right. The resulting identity is precisely logarithmic intertwiner Jacobi for the swapped inputs. All exponential and substitution coefficients are finite by Step 1.1; the three binomial expansion orders were retained in the displayed identities.
For Möbius covariance write with rows indexed by . The original three bracket identities say that the column of brackets is times the column of . Since , at one has . Also by the three brackets. Subtracting these two identities in the definition of the bracket with leaves exactly , as required. Finally, composing with cancels and the two logarithm increments sum to zero. Hence both compositions are the identity, proving invertibility.
Let have first input . Its derivative identity applied to shows that . The derivative of a finite logarithmic polynomial times a complex power vanishes only for a constant coefficient at power zero: for nonzero power compare the highest log degree, and for power zero differentiate the polynomial. Thus is an actual linear map . The current commutator derived by a Jacobi residue gives for every integer . Hence is a module map. The three Möbius brackets on show that it also intertwines ; the gradings show it preserves the auxiliary degree and generalized weights. To recover the full operator, take the Jacobi residue for the first-input state . It gives since intertwines the fields and the difference of the two kernels is . Conversely this formula for any such satisfies Jacobi by module Jacobi, and its derivative and Möbius identities follow from those of the module field. This proves the left-unit classification. Applying the proved inverse skew transformation gives the right-unit classification and the displayed vacuum value.
In the reconstruction scope, [F3] evaluates these two classifications as natural bijections between -maps with inputs or and module maps out of . Thus with the two displayed universal maps represents the respective functor. The representing property of and gives the unique comparison isomorphisms . More explicitly, the universal map of either chosen product corresponds by Step 5.1 to a module map ; its composite with the displayed comparison is the identity of , and the reverse composite is the identity of because it agrees with the universal map. This proves actual inverses and naturality without a dimension or spanning argument. Similarly evaluate on the reconstructed universal operator for . It gives the stated -map, hence a unique by universality. The inverse skew transformation with the reversed logarithm increment gives its inverse; equality of both composites is forced by their equality on the universal maps. Naturality follows in the same way, since module maps commute with all the formulas. This constructs the skew and unit maps without an external skew-symmetry or tensor-unit theorem.
