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.

Far-field dipole expansion of a compact conserved current with a uniform explicit remainder

Physical scope

A far-field dipole estimate for the magnetostatic field of a compact smooth conserved current, uniform for r≥2a, with an explicit remainder and absolute constants. The leading term is not an exact field; nothing is asserted inside r<2a or at the support, and no experiment, apparatus or uncertainty is involved.

Statement

Assume Countable Choice (ACω), with the exact meaning of The Axiom of Countable Choice (ACω). Let J∈Cc∞(Ω;R3) with div⁡J=0 and supp⁡J⊂Ba(0) for some a>0, let A be the vector potential of Coulomb-gauge Newtonian vector potential for a compact smooth conserved current and B=curl⁡A its magnetostatic field, and let m=12∫R3y×J(y) dy be the magnetic moment of The magnetic dipole moment of a compact conserved current and of the declared ideal thin loop(a). Then for r=∣x∣≥2a, uniformly in the unit vector n=x/r, A(x)=μ04πm×xr3+O ⁣(μ0a2∥J∥1r3),B(x)=μ04π3n(m⋅n)−mr3+O ⁣(μ0a2∥J∥1r4), where ∥J∥1=∫R3∣J∣ dλ3 and the constants implicit in the O terms are absolute: one constant works for all r≥2a and all unit n. This is a controlled two-term far-field estimate: nothing is asserted for r<2a or at the support, no higher multipole is defined here, and the leading dipole term is not claimed to be exact.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: Assume ACω; let J∈Cc∞(R3;R3) with div⁡J=0 and supp⁡J⊂Ba(0); let A, B=curl⁡A be as in Coulomb-gauge Newtonian vector potential for a compact smooth conserved current and m be as in The magnetic dipole moment of a compact conserved current and of the declared ideal thin loop(a).

[F1]

The vector potential satisfies Ai=μ0N(Ji)=(μ0/4π)∫R3Ji(y)∣x−y∣−1dy componentwise and B=curl⁡A is its magnetostatic field (Coulomb-gauge Newtonian vector potential for a compact smooth conserved current, clauses (a)-(c)).

[F2]

The magnetic moment of the compact smooth current is the source moment m=12∫R3y×J(y) dy of The magnetic dipole moment of a compact conserved current and of the declared ideal thin loop(a), computed componentwise as a Riemann integral over a nondegenerate closed bounding rectangle Q⊃supp⁡J of the continuous compactly supported integrand, with the cross product of The cross product in R3; clause (c) records that m is a model quantity and that its far-field interpretation is the content of this theorem under its hypotheses.

[F3]

Under the stated hypotheses, with m=12∫R3y×J(y) dy (Lebesgue), r=∣x∣≥2a and n=x/r, one has uniformly in n: A=μ04πm×xr3+O(μ0a2∥J∥1r−3) and B=μ04π3n(m⋅n)−mr3+O(μ0a2∥J∥1r−4), with absolute constants and ∥J∥1=∫∣J∣ (Magnetic dipole expansion with an explicit uniform remainder).

[F4]

If f is a bounded Borel real function on a nondegenerate closed rectangle Q and f is Riemann integrable there, then f is Lebesgue integrable with the same integral; equivalently, for smooth compactly supported integrands the Riemann integral over a bounding rectangle equals the Lebesgue integral of their zero extension (Riemann–Lebesgue comparison for distribution test integrands).

[F5]

ACω is the countable-choice principle assumed here and inherited by the cited comparison and measure interfaces (The Axiom of Countable Choice (ACω)).

1.1givenF1F2F3F4

The hypotheses of [F3] are exactly the hypotheses stated here for J (smooth, compactly supported, divergence-free, contained in Ba(0)), and the objects of [F3] are the objects of this theorem: A=μ04π∫J(y)∣x−y∣−1dy componentwise and B=curl⁡A by [F1]. The moment of [F2] agrees with the Lebesgue moment of [F3]: each component y↦(y×J(y))i is smooth and compactly supported, hence bounded Borel and Riemann integrable on any nondegenerate closed rectangle Q containing supp⁡J; by [F4] its Riemann integral over Q equals its Lebesgue integral over Q, and since the integrand vanishes off supp⁡J⊂Q this equals the Lebesgue integral over R3. Hence 12∫R3y×J(y) dy is the same vector in both items.

2.1step 1.1F3

Substituting the identifications of step 1.1 into the conclusion of [F3] gives, for r=∣x∣≥2a and uniformly in the unit vector n=x/r, the displayed estimates A(x)=μ04πm×xr3+O(μ0a2∥J∥1r−3) and B(x)=μ04π3n(m⋅n)−mr3+O(μ0a2∥J∥1r−4) for the framework's A and B, with the lemma's uniformity and absolute constants and with ∥J∥1=∫R3∣J∣ dλ3 as in the Statement.

3.1step 1.1step 2.1F3F4F5∎

The estimates of step 2.1 are the content of the Statement; no assertion is made for r<2a or at the support, no higher multipole is defined, and the leading dipole term is not claimed to be exact. Countable Choice is used only through the Riemann-Lebesgue comparison [F4] and the measure and Newtonian interfaces [F5] of the cited suppliers; no stronger choice principle occurs.

Source notes

Griffiths, Section 5.4.3, printed pp. 242-247, expands the vector potential and gives the dipole field (5.85)-(5.87) with the coordinate-free form and its delta term (5.90); Tong, Sections 3.3.1-3.3.2, printed pp. 54-57, gives the loop far field and the general moment (3.24); Landau-Lifshitz, Section 44, printed pp. 103-105, gives the first-order average field in Gaussian units, re-expressed here in SI. The uniform remainder is carried by the explicit mathematical supplier Magnetic dipole expansion with an explicit uniform remainder, not by the textbook expansions, and the Riemann moment of the definition is reconciled with the supplier's Lebesgue moment in step 1.1.
