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.

Statement
Assume Countable Choice and use the scalar and Dirac free-field constructions of Smeared free scalar field and its Poincare representation and Smeared free Dirac CAR fields and graded locality with their current draft hypotheses, including the Dirac projection and CAR inputs in Dirac matrix identities and orthogonal energy projections and Bosonic and fermionic Fock operators with exact domains. For a real scalar test , is self-adjoint on the exact domain given by Self-adjoint Segal fields and explicit Weyl unitaries. On scalar bosonic Fock space, , , and are the maximal real multipliers of Second-quantized multipliers, joint spectral measure and exact domains; in particular, and the Hamiltonian and momentum domains are exactly the square-integrability domains of the sums of their one-particle multipliers.
On the specified Dirac Fock space, spacetime-smeared fields are bounded, while the translation generators have the exact maximal domains and joint PVM stated in Fermionic Dirac translation generators and positive spectrum. For any one of these self-adjoint real-multiplier operators , a normalized has finite mean and finite variance Membership in suffices for finite variance and does not require . A product is defined only when and , as specified in The Schroedinger-Robertson bound in anticommutator form and the Robertson bound on product domains.
For the scalar point limit, fix and real tests , , such that for every Schwartz test and for -almost every shell momentum. Then . A sufficient condition for both convergences is , , and for each . This includes all nonnegative normalized Schwartz approximate identities with mass concentrating at , as well as signed families satisfying that condition; weak distributional convergence alone is not substituted for convergence of the mass-shell Fourier restriction. For the equal-time Dirac CAR field, fix and . For every family satisfying for each spinor Schwartz test , the bounded equal-time smeared operators satisfy at each fixed time . Thus neither construction gives a point-field value in the indicated norm topology. The supplied free-field results define only smeared fields and do not define coincident diagonal products.

Proof
Given: [A1] and [F1]–[F18].
The measure is sigma-finite by [F9], and and are finite measurable multipliers by [F2]. Applying [F5] with one-particle multiplier vector gives the self-adjoint scalar operators . On sector , their multipliers are , , and . Squaring these multipliers and integrating against the completed product measure yields exactly the stated domains.
The Dirac data in [F6] satisfy the measurable, finite-multiplier hypotheses of [F7], and [F16] supplies the complementary orthogonal projections and closed ranges required by that carrier. The one-particle measure is sigma-finite: each of the two species copies of R^3 is the countable union of bounded balls with finite Lebesgue measure. Let Y_m be the two species copies restricted to the ball of radius m; each Y_m has finite measure. For fixed n, the product sets Y_m^n have finite product measure and cover X^n as m grows. Their countable union over n and m is a sigma-finite cover of the Fock direct-sum measure. The particle and antiparticle sector multipliers are therefore self-adjoint on the maximal domains in [F7], which are the displayed square-integrability conditions for and each . The field boundedness and equal-time CAR are exactly the inspected interfaces in [F8].
For real , [F3] identifies the scalar field on with . The Hilbert space is separable by [F13], so the hypothesis of the Segal-domain result [F4] holds. Multiplication by the nonzero scalar does not change an operator domain; hence the closure is self-adjoint on the domain in [F4] with . If , both operators are zero on all Fock space.
For a normalized , Cauchy–Schwarz [F12] gives . Since is self-adjoint, this expectation is real. The vector belongs to the Hilbert space because both terms do, so its norm and the stated variance are finite without requiring . By [F14], a product acts only on vectors for which ; it is not defined merely because both and separately exist on a common dense core.
Choose from [F18] for . Put and . The integral is finite because and its support lies in a bounded ball, and it is positive because on a ball of positive volume. Every derivative of is continuous with compact support, so all its coordinate-weighted derivatives are bounded. Thus is Schwartz, nonnegative, nonzero, and has integral one. In particular . Define . The integral triangle inequality gives ; dominated convergence [F10], with majorant , gives as . Set and, for , define . For every Schwartz test , change of variables and dominated convergence [F10], with majorant , give , so this is a point-mass approximation. For the same change of variables gives Thus for every fixed shell momentum and . The shell measure has infinite total mass: in radial coordinates, for , , so its radial density is bounded below by a positive constant times , whose integral diverges. Fatou's lemma [F11] therefore gives . By [F1, F3] and the creation formula on the vacuum, , so these vacuum vectors have no finite-norm point-field limit. More generally, suppose satisfies the scalar hypotheses in the Statement. For any sequence , Fatou [F11] applied to gives . Thus the norms diverge as : otherwise a bounded sequence with could be selected using [A1], contradicting this conclusion. The vacuum creation identity gives the asserted field-vector norm. To verify the sufficient concentration condition, let and let be any bounded continuous scalar function. Since , splitting the integral at radius gives . First choose using continuity at , then take . Applying this to Schwartz and to proves both required limits. Every rescaling of a nonnegative normalized Schwartz profile has and satisfies concentration by its integrable tail; hence the general conclusion includes every such profile, not only the chosen bumps.
The scalar one-particle space contains a unit vector , for example a normalized indicator of an annulus , whose shell measure is finite and positive by [F2]. The symmetric vectors are unit vectors in mutually orthogonal sectors. Put and . By [F15], converges and is positive, so is well-defined and is normalized. Also by [F15], , so and is a Fock vector. Its image under one more application of would have squared norm , so . By the composition-domain rule [F14] with , . Its mean and variance are finite by 2.2.
Fix a unit spinor and, for , define . For every spatial Schwartz test, change of variables and [F10] show that its pairing with tends to the test's value at times , while . For a general family in the Dirac Statement, set and for . By [F18], this is a spinor Schwartz test, , and . Given , choose with . The assumed pairing limit then gives for all sufficiently small . Cauchy–Schwarz [F12] implies . Thus every such family has . The following operator estimate applies to either the explicit bump family or this arbitrary family. By [F16], choose countable dense sets in the two Dirac energy ranges. Conjugating the negative-range dense set preserves density, and the Cartesian product of the two dense sets is countable and dense in the Hilbert direct sum. Therefore the one-particle space for the CAR Fock representation is separable and [F17] applies. For , [F8] gives . By [F17], the creation and annihilation terms are bounded, hence so is their sum. Cauchy–Schwarz [F12] gives , while choosing for each unit with gives equality after taking the supremum over . The adjoint identity swaps and , so the same two-vector supremum equals . For bounded operators , each unit satisfies and ; taking suprema gives product submultiplicativity and the triangle inequality. Applying these inequalities to the CAR identity yields . Thus , excluding a bounded equal-time point-field norm limit.
Remarks
The two point-limit conclusions concern the specific free representations and norm topologies stated above; they do not rule out other distributional or renormalized constructions. The supplied scalar and Dirac lemmas define fields after test smearing. They do not define a restriction of a product such as or to the diagonal .
