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.

Completeness of the periodic Sobolev spaces H^s(T^3_{2 pi}; R^N)

Statement

Assume the Axiom of Countable Choice ACω (The Axiom of Countable Choice (ACω)). Let s≥0 be an integer and N≥1, write Hs=Hs(T2π3;RN) for the periodic Sobolev space with its norm ∥⋅∥Hs and Fourier coefficients u^(k)∈CN of The 2 pi-periodic three-torus, its normalized measure, test functions and the Sobolev spaces H^s, and put Ns(u)2:=∑k∈Z3(1+∣k∣2)s ∣u^(k)∣2≤+∞. Then:

(a) every Cauchy sequence in (Hs,∥⋅∥Hs) converges in (Hs,∥⋅∥Hs); that is, Hs is a real Banach space;

(b) more precisely, for every Cauchy sequence (un) in Hs there is u∈Hs with Ns(un−u)→0, and then ∥un−u∥Hs≤Cs1/2Ns(un−u)→0, where Cs is the constant of clause (b) of Periodic Fourier differentiation identity and equivalence of the derivative and Fourier-weight Sobolev norms; this u is the unique limit of (un).

Facts & Assumptions

Given: Countable Choice, integers s≥0 and N≥1, the torus T2π3 with its normalized measure and the spaces of The 2 pi-periodic three-torus, its normalized measure, test functions and the Sobolev spaces H^s, and a sequence (un) in Hs that is Cauchy for ∥⋅∥Hs.

[L1]

Fourier differentiation and norm equivalence: there are constants 0<cs≤Cs<∞, depending only on s, with csNs(u)2≤∥u∥Hs2≤CsNs(u)2 for every u∈Hs; and conversely, if a class u∈L2(T2π3;RN) satisfies Ns(u)<∞, then u∈Hs and the same two inequalities hold (Periodic Fourier differentiation identity and equivalence of the derivative and Fourier-weight Sobolev norms clause (b)).

[L2]

L2(T2π3;RN) is a real Hilbert space, hence complete; for u∈L2 and every k one has ∣u^(k)∣CN≤∥u∥2, because ∣χk∣=1 and Cauchy--Schwarz applies (L2 with the integral pairing is a Hilbert space, The 2 pi-periodic three-torus, its normalized measure, test functions and the Sobolev spaces H^s, Cauchy–Schwarz: ∣⟨x,y⟩∣≤∥x∥ ∥y∥, with equality exactly for dependent pairs).

[L3]

(χk)k∈Z3 is an orthonormal family of L2, so for finitely supported coefficient families ∥∑kakχk∥22=∑k∣ak∣2 (The trigonometric characters are orthonormal in L2 of the torus, The Fourier basis and Parseval's identity on the finite torus, The 2 pi-periodic three-torus, its normalized measure, test functions and the Sobolev spaces H^s).

[L4]

ℓ2(Z3;CN) is complete. Under the elementary identification c↔(ckj)(k,j) it is the space ℓ2(Z3×{1,…,N};C) of Square-summable families on an arbitrary index set and the space ℓ2(I), and ℓ2(I;F) is complete for every index set I and every F∈{R,C} (A Hilbert space with a given orthonormal basis is ℓ2 of the index set).

[L6]

A convergent sequence in a metric space has exactly one limit (A sequence in a metric space has at most one limit).

Proof

technique · direct
1.1L1algebra

(Weighted coefficient Cauchy sequences.) Hs is a vector space, so un−um∈Hs; put wk:=(1+∣k∣2)s/2 and c(n):=(wkun^(k))k. By [L1], ∥c(n)−c(m)∥ℓ22=∑k∣wkun^(k)−wkum^(k)∣2=Ns(un−um)2≤cs−1∥un−um∥Hs2, so (c(n)) is a Cauchy sequence in ℓ2(Z3;CN).

2.1step 1.1L4algebra

(Coefficientwise limit.) By [L4] there is c∈ℓ2(Z3;CN) with ∥c(n)−c∥ℓ2→0; convergence in ℓ2 gives coordinate convergence, so wkun^(k)→ck for every k. Put vk:=wk−1ck; then un^(k)→vk and Ns(v)2:=∑k(1+∣k∣2)s∣vk∣2=∑k∣ck∣2=∥c∥ℓ22<∞.

3.1step 2.1L3algebra

(Conjugate symmetry of the limit coefficients.) Each un is real-valued, so un^(−k)=un^(k)‾ for every k, by conjugating the defining integral and using χ−k=χk‾; passing to the limit of the convergent coordinate sequences gives v−k=vk‾ for every k.

4.1step 2.1step 3.1L1L2L3algebra

(The limit class.) For n≥0 let u(n):=∑∣k∣∞≤nvkχk, a finite sum defining a class in L2(T2π3;RN): conjugating the finite sum gives ∑kvk‾ χk‾=∑kv−kχ−k=∑kvkχk by step 3.1, so it is real-valued, and its Fourier coefficients are vk for ∣k∣∞≤n and 0 otherwise. By [L3] and step 2.1, ∥u(n)−u(m)∥22=∑n<∣k∣∞≤m∣vk∣2→0 as n,m→∞, because ∑k∣vk∣2≤Ns(v)2<∞ and s≥0 gives (1+∣k∣2)s≥1; since L2 is complete [L2], (u(n)) converges in L2 to a class u∈L2(T2π3;RN). For every k, ∣u^(k)−u(n)^(k)∣=∣u−u(n)^(k)∣≤∥u−u(n)∥2→0 by [L2], so u^(k)=vk; hence Ns(u)=Ns(v)<∞ and [L1] gives u∈Hs.

5.1step 1.1step 2.1step 4.1L1algebra

(Convergence in Hs.) By steps 2.1 and 4.1, Ns(un−u)2=∑k(1+∣k∣2)s∣un^(k)−vk∣2=∑k∣wkun^(k)−ck∣2=∥c(n)−c∥ℓ22→0, and [L1] gives ∥un−u∥Hs≤Cs1/2Ns(un−u)→0.

6.1step 4.1step 5.1L6∎

(Conclusion.) Steps 4.1 and 5.1 produce, for every Cauchy sequence in Hs, a limit u∈Hs with Ns(un−u)→0 and ∥un−u∥Hs→0; this is (a) and the first two assertions of (b), and the limit is unique by [L6].
