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.

Free scalar wedge data and modular-geometric bridge

Physical scope

One selected massive, noninteracting real scalar vacuum representation on four-dimensional affine Minkowski spacetime, its right-wedge local Weyl algebra, and the assumed modular/boost bridge. This scope includes neither a detector model nor an empirical temperature measurement, an interacting QFT, or a general curved-spacetime result.

Postulate

Assume both the Axiom of Choice and the Axiom of Countable Choice. Fix a massive real scalar species with rest mass mrest>0 in kilograms. Use four-dimensional affine Minkowski spacetime with metric η=diag⁡(−1,1,1,1) and length coordinates x=(x0,x1,x2,x3), where x0=ct and c>0 has units m s−1. Set μ=mrestc/ℏ>0 in m−1, where ℏ>0 is in J s. The future shell, one-particle space, and measure are Hμ+={(p0,p):(p0)2−∣p∣2=μ2, p0>0},Hμ=L2(Hμ+,dνμ),dνμ=d3p(2π)3 2∣p∣2+μ2. Take the scalar Hilbert space to be the bosonic symmetric Fock space H=Fs(Hμ) and its unit zero-particle vector to be Ω.

For an open set O⊆R4 and real f∈Cc∞(O;R), define Kμf(p)=∫R4f(x)ei(p0x0−p⋅x) d4x,Wμ(f)=WSegal(2 Kμf). Let As(O) be the operator-norm closure of the unital ∗-algebra generated by all these bounded Weyl unitaries, and set WR={x∈R4:x1>∣x0∣} and M(WR)=As(WR)′′⊆B(H). Here B(H) denotes the bounded linear operators; S′ is the set of bounded operators commuting with every member of S, and S′′=(S′)′. Thus M(WR) is a concrete von Neumann algebra in the chosen double-commutant convention.

For dimensionless rapidity s∈R, define the future-directed boost by ΛW(s)(x0,x1,x2,x3)=(x0cosh⁡s+x1sinh⁡s, x0sinh⁡s+x1cosh⁡s, x2, x3). Use its scalar Fock implementation: on the one-particle space [uμ(Λ)ψ](p)=ψ(Λ−1p), and on the n-particle symmetric sector U(Λ)=uμ(Λ)⊗sn, with the vacuum sector fixed. The QFT Fock pairing is linear in its second argument; for the modular definitions use the equivalent first-variable-linear pairing ⟨u,v⟩1:=⟨v,u⟩2. Thus the vacuum vector state is ωW(X)=⟨XΩ,Ω⟩1=⟨Ω,XΩ⟩2. Assume explicitly that Ω is cyclic and separating for M(WR), meaning M(WR)Ω‾=H and XΩ=0 for X∈M(WR) implies X=0. The Tomita operator is the closure of SW,0(XΩ)=X∗Ω on M(WR)Ω; write its polar decomposition as SW=JWΔW1/2, in the standard modular-data convention.

As an additional model interface, adopt ΔWit=U(ΛW(−2πt))(t∈R). This geometric identity and cyclic-separating property are explicit adopted assumptions for this selected model. The abstract Tomita–Takesaki theorem supplies modular automorphisms and their KMS property, but this carrier does not use it as a proof that the modular unitaries equal spacetime boosts. No tensor-product factorization of the continuum Hilbert space across the wedge and its complement is assumed.

Remarks

The free scalar construction and local Weyl algebra use only the scalar branch of the selected QFT model. The pairing conversion above makes the QFT vector state identical to the state used by the first-variable-linear modular convention. No charge-number domain, Dirac field, detector instrument, observation, or thermal density matrix is imported.
