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.
Causal stable bulk-relaxation linear response
Adiabatic bulk-only first variations about the specified uniform Minkowski rest state with h0,T0,a_s,zeta,tau positive and a_s+zeta/(tau h0)<=1; linear evolution only, not nonlinear or curved-spacetime existence or empirical applicability.
Statement
Assume the adiabatic bulk-only linear branch of Specified small-perturbation material dynamics on its prescribed Minkowski background, with , the Axiom of Countable Choice , and
For every initial datum or with , the Cauchy problem for the system
has a unique global smooth solution on the corresponding space-time domain and is contractive in its positive quadratic energy and weighted Sobolev norms. Its energy density
satisfies . For each Sobolev exponent , its weighted Sobolev norm is nonincreasing for . The characteristic speeds, meaning eigenvalues of the principal matrix in a unit spatial direction, are and . Finite propagation means that if initial data vanish on a ball of radius , then at time they vanish on the concentric ball of radius whenever , where ; on use geodesic balls. Hence propagation is bounded by under the stated inequality. Equality at the causal threshold is allowed. Energy contraction does not assert decay of every mode. The result is conditional on the adopted linear model; it is not a nonlinear or curved-spacetime existence claim or an empirical conclusion.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The physical time and spatial coordinates , the adiabatic bulk-only branch, and the state and transport parameters and units specified in Specified small-perturbation material dynamics.
and . Positivity makes the displayed energy positive definite; the upper bound is the additional causal-branch assumption.
Assume : for every sequence of nonempty sets there is a function with for every (The Axiom of Countable Choice ()). This is the exact choice strength used by the mathematical supplier proof; no stronger choice principle is assumed.
Specified small-perturbation material dynamics: the bulk branch has , , , , constant , and adopts the displayed three-equation system about and . In particular follows from the response identity and these strict inequalities; [A1] supplies the additional causal inequality. Put .
Bulk linear relaxation energy, stability and causal speed (current batch-56 mathematical draft): under its exact state and adiabatic hypotheses, , , the corrected bulk-model interface, and [A2], its complete conditional proof gives the positive energy identity, unique global smooth solutions for or , and weighted Sobolev contraction for every . Here , where is the identity; on the Fourier transform is and . On the torus, and . It gives characteristic speeds and the ball-shrinking finite-propagation property stated above. The positive-response, zero-reference-bulk-pressure, data-class and countable-choice hypotheses here match that exact mathematical interface.
Proof
By [F1] the physical bulk branch is exactly the displayed constant-coefficient system, with the mathematical supplier's identified as the first variation and with the same . Hypothesis [A1] supplies its positivity and causal-parameter conditions.
Apply [F2] under [A2] to this identical system and matching state, parameter, and data hypotheses. It yields the stated energy density and dissipation identity, unique global smooth solutions for both data classes, contraction, characteristic speeds, and finite propagation at .
Since and , its nonnegative square root is at most , so the propagation speed is at most . Equality holds when the parameter sum is . The result is a conditional model deduction under [A2] and does not imply decay of neutral modes.
