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.
Killing exchange current and gauge-compensated charged first integral
Statement
Let be an oriented open subset of the time-oriented Lorentzian domain of Smooth formal matter, EM tensors and observer quantities. Let and be smooth, let be smooth and symmetric, and suppose
Let be the tensor of Smooth formal matter, EM tensors and observer quantities and assume the exact conditional identity of Curved electromagnetic stress divergence, , under its stated smoothness and source-sign hypotheses. For a smooth Killing field on , meaning , define
Then . If is a finite smooth singular -chain in with for smooth singular -chains, and , then
In particular the two slice fluxes are equal when the side flux vanishes.
There is also a local test-particle identity. Let be open, let be a supplied smooth one-form on with , and let be a smooth scalar with . If is any interval with nonempty interior (Intervals of : the nine order-convex forms, nondegeneracy, and length) and a curve in the sense of clause (a) of Timelike worldlines, proper time, length and four-velocity on a Lorentzian four-manifold has velocity (one-sided at included endpoints), , and satisfies with the C-curve covariant acceleration of Covariant acceleration along a curve, for constants , where , then
is constant along the curve. This is a conditional mathematical identity for a supplied field and an existing curve; it constructs no particle trajectory, global potential, Einstein solution, or point-source self-field.

Proof
Add the exchange equation to the conditional Maxwell stress identity [F2]. The force-density terms cancel, giving . The sum is symmetric: is symmetric by hypothesis, and is symmetric because is symmetric.
In a chart along , differentiate by [F9]. Expanding gives . Substitute metric compatibility from [F5] and the coordinate expressions for the two covariant derivatives. The first connection term combines with into ; the second combines with into . The latter is zero because is symmetric and [F3] gives . Substituting the curve equation into the first term yields .
In local coordinates, [F6] gives . Since , , and . Adding the latter two expressions proves . Since , it follows that .
Apply the product rule to . Its divergence is . The first term vanishes by step 1.1; the second is one half the contraction of a symmetric tensor with , which vanishes by [F3]. Thus .
Apply the finite-chain balance [F4] to . Its divergence is zero by step 2.1, so . With as defined in the Statement, this is the claimed balance; equality follows only under the stated zero-side-flux condition.
By the chain rule [F9], at every interior parameter value the derivative of along is by step 1.3. After multiplying by , this cancels the kinetic derivative in step 1.2, so is continuous on and has zero derivative at every interior point. Applying [F8] makes constant on the interval, including any included endpoints. Under and , the difference is unchanged, since . Hence the first integral is gauge invariant.
Remarks
- The current is a Killing flux built from stress, not electric charge. The finite-chain formula includes a side flux and does not assert an asymptotic or universal global energy.
- If the symmetry parameter has length units in length coordinates, is dimensionless, and have units , and the test-particle constant has momentum units; multiplying the stationary time-translation constant by gives energy units.
- The statement uses no Einstein equation, no matter action, no Maxwell source construction, and no existence theorem for the curve.
- The draft
lem-emg-maxwell-stress-divergencecarrier has a complete conditional proof at its exact interface: smooth , , , and imply . Its current Step 1 record isready; the dated owner final-dispositions record resolves the earlier authoring-readiness hold at the current source binding. The declared action-variation, current-forms, and seven typed mathematical inputs are also current and ready at their inspected interfaces. This establishes authoring readiness only; no independent proof approval or publication is inferred. The stress-current deduction remains conditional on the stated model and supplier identity, while the local test-particle clause is proved separately.
