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.
Coercive polynomial form completion and injection
Statement
Assume Countable Choice. Use the finite data and notation of Finite-lattice polynomial Hamiltonian data: , , , and . For define and . Let be the completion of this inner-product space, constructed as equivalence classes of -Cauchy sequences. Then is a complex Hilbert space and the map sending a Cauchy class to its limit is a continuous injective linear map with dense image. Each has weak derivatives and a weighted function , and Here means explicitly that for every .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: Countable Choice, the data of Finite-lattice polynomial Hamiltonian data, and the and density results below.
The Axiom of Countable Choice (): every countable family of nonempty sets has a choice function; only countably many representatives are selected in the completion argument.
Finite-lattice polynomial Hamiltonian data: is complex with first-variable-linear integral pairing, , and .
with the integral pairing is a Hilbert space: under Countable Choice, is complete for and is its inner product.
is dense in for : under Countable Choice and for , is dense in .
Proof
Since and every , is a Hermitian positive-definite sesquilinear form on : in particular , and forces in . Thus its Cauchy-sequence completion with the stated equivalence relation is a well-defined inner-product space.
To see that the completion is complete, let be a Cauchy sequence of its classes. By [A1], choose with for each . The triangle inequality makes -Cauchy; its class is defined by the Cauchy-sequence construction, and . Hence is complete and therefore Hilbert.
For a -Cauchy representative sequence , the inequalities , , and show that , each , and converge in by [F2]; write their limits as , , and . The first limit defines a continuous map , since , and equivalent Cauchy sequences have the same limit.
For every , integration by parts gives . Passing to the limit in both integrals by convergence and Cauchy–Schwarz yields , so is the stated weak derivative.
On each compact ball , the continuous polynomial is bounded. Therefore in , while the same sequence converges there to ; uniqueness of limits gives almost everywhere on every integer-radius ball and hence almost everywhere on . Taking limits of the component norms in now gives the displayed formula for .
If in , then step 3.1 says for every ; this pairing is continuous by [F3] and is dense by [F4], so it vanishes on all of , and taking gives . Step 3.2 then gives ; the norm formula yields , so the embedding is injective. Finally its image contains , which is dense in by [F4]; thus the continuous injection has dense image and all claims follow.
