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.
Absolute convergence of trace-Gibbs bounded correlation series
Statement
Assume the Axiom of Choice. Let be separable, a densely defined Hamiltonian bounded below with energy unit J, and lie in an open interval measured in J on which is trace class for every . Set , , and with in J s and in s. By Self-adjoint trace-Gibbs normalization and form-energy optimization, has a complete orthonormal energy basis , , with Gibbs weights and . For bounded , put , , and . Then converges absolutely and uniformly on , with . Consequently is a finite complex Borel measure with total variation at most , and . A Dirac measure assigns mass one to the point . When carry units , the atomic masses of the finite measure have units . For every smooth compactly supported complex-valued function , the distribution represented by acts as . In the Fourier convention, the generalized density relative to has units multiplied by seconds; it is a sum of Dirac distributions, not an ordinary function density.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The Axiom of Choice; the trace-class Gibbs hypotheses in the Statement; bounded operators ; and the specified and .
The Axiom of Choice: assume the full Axiom of Choice for the unbounded self-adjoint spectral theorem.
Self-adjoint trace-Gibbs normalization and form-energy optimization: under [A1], self-adjoint bounded below with trace class on an open positive interval has , a faithful normal Gibbs density, and a complete energy eigenbasis with eigenvalues .
Trace-state cyclicity and spectral probability calculus: for a trace-class density and bounded , with absolute convergence; bounded cyclicity holds only for the trace-class factor and bounded factor.
Parseval equivalences for an orthonormal family: for a complete orthonormal basis , .
Hilbert-adjoint identities and The operator norm as the least bound and as the unit-sphere or unit-ball supremum: and for bounded operators.
Cauchy–Schwarz: , with equality exactly for dependent pairs: for square-summable coefficient sequences, the absolute inner-product sum is bounded by the product of their norms.
Proof
Given: [A1], [F1]–[F3], and the bounded matrices of the Statement.
The eigenbasis and weights in the Statement are provided by [F1], and follows from . For each fixed , Parseval [F3] and [F4] give and . By [F5] and summing the nonnegative bounds over , .
Apply [F2] to . Expanding the diagonal matrix element in the energy basis gives . The absolute bound from step 1.1 justifies the double sum and is independent of ; hence the series converges uniformly by the uniform tail bound and equals the stated trace correlation.
For each Borel set , define . Absolute convergence from step 1.1 makes this finite and makes the sum countably additive: for disjoint , each atom belongs to exactly one , and the absolutely convergent series may be regrouped. The same bound gives total variation at most . Integrating the bounded function termwise, justified by that absolute sum, gives the stated Fourier relation.
