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.
Isotony and spacelike commutativity of scalar local Weyl algebras
Statement
Assume Countable Choice The Axiom of Countable Choice (). Let be open. For real define where the Segal normalization is exactly on the finite-particle domain, as in Self-adjoint Segal fields and explicit Weyl unitaries. This scale makes the self-adjoint generator of equal to the closure , whose restriction to is the real scalar field of Smeared free scalar field and its Poincare representation. Define the unital norm-closed operator algebra Then implies . If every difference , with and , is spacelike, then every element of commutes with every element of . These are algebraic properties of the constructed representation; they are not empirical signaling or measurement claims.

The one-parameter group has norm derivative at zero exactly on the domain of the closed Segal field, with derivative . Self-adjoint Segal fields and explicit Weyl unitaries
Proof
For real , the essentially self-adjoint finite-particle scalar field has closure by the Segal normalization and [F4]. Thus [F4] identifies this closure as the self-adjoint generator of . If , each real test function supported in is also a real test function supported in . Thus the generators and their adjoints for belong to the generating set for ; finite sums and products do too, and norm closure preserves inclusion. This proves isotony.
Let be real tests supported in the two spacelike-separated regions. By [F2] their field commutator is zero. Fact [F3], obtained by expanding the fields with the CCR, then gives ; hence the imaginary part vanishes. Substituting it in [F1] gives . Taking adjoints shows each generator from the first region commutes with each generator and adjoint from the second. Commutation is preserved under finite linear combinations and products; if bounded sequences and in operator norm satisfy , then continuity of multiplication gives . Taking the two norm closures proves the assertion for the full local algebras.
