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.
Stationarity and intensity of a periodized empirical field
Statement
Assume the Axiom of Countable Choice (The Axiom of Countable Choice ()). For and a finite configuration with , the measure of Periodized empirical field of a finite configuration is a stationary probability law of finite intensity and For any probability law on finite configurations in with , its empirical-field barycenter is also a stationary probability law of finite intensity and .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The Axiom of Countable Choice and the half-open cube , a finite simple configuration , and, when the barycenter is used, a law with ; use Periodized empirical field of a finite configuration.
Periodized empirical field of a finite configuration: averages the translations of the -periodic continuation over one fundamental cube.
Local-Tame Topology: stationarity means invariance under every translation and finite intensity means finite expected count in a unit cell. The notation in Periodized empirical field of a finite configuration is .
Under the stated countable-choice assumption, A box in with parameters is Lebesgue measurable of measure , whichever of its faces are included, Lebesgue outer measure, Lebesgue measurability and Lebesgue measure are unchanged by translation, and Tonelli's theorem for nonnegative measurable functions on a sigma-finite product: has volume , translations preserve Lebesgue measure, and nonnegative sums may be integrated termwise.
Proof
Given: The hypotheses and definitions in Facts & Assumptions.
By [F1], is the push-forward of normalized Lebesgue probability on , so it is a probability measure. For a bounded measurable local and , The integrand is -periodic in . The translated cube is another fundamental region for this lattice; partitioning it and into their finitely many translated intersections and using translation invariance of Lebesgue measure gives equal integrals. Hence for every , so is stationary.
For bounded Borel , Tonelli's theorem and the periodic continuation give For each fixed , the sets partition up to null boundaries. Translating variables in each integral therefore makes the inner sum of integrals equal to . Summing over the representatives gives . Taking proves and finite intensity.
The barycenter is a probability mixture of the stationary laws , so it is stationary. By step 2.1 and Tonelli, Thus it belongs to the finite-intensity stationary domain of .
