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.
Extremal RN to Bertotti-Robinson in C-infinity local scaling
RN extremality convention
For this Reissner–Nordström parameterization with , “extremal” means . In the purely electric case , this is .
Convergence convention
convergence on means uniform convergence of every coordinate derivative on each compact subset in a finite smooth atlas.
Statement
Fix and take the extremal RN datum with , , on in Dyonic Reissner-Nordström metric and field domains. For each dimensionless , define
Writing and , one has
As , these tensors converge in on to
Under , , the limiting datum is exactly the , product in Constant-radius Bertotti-Robinson product data, and it is a geometric electrovac datum by Product electrovacuum equations from full factor Ricci. Here means uniform convergence of every coordinate derivative on every compact subset in a finite smooth atlas. The convergence is only on ; no extension or convergence across is asserted.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The RN and Bertotti-Robinson definitions, the extremal parameters , and .
Dyonic Reissner-Nordström metric and field domains gives and when .
Full dyonic Reissner-Nordström electrovac verification proves the dyonic RN datum is source-free electrovac on every open domain with and . Only its geometric clause is used.
Constant-radius Bertotti-Robinson product data defines and on .
Product electrovacuum equations from full factor Ricci proves this limiting product is electrovac.
Geometric electrovac equations and flux normalization defines the geometric equations satisfied by both source and limiting data.
, , and , so and every denominator displayed in the Statement is nonzero.
Proof
The map is a diffeomorphism from onto the RN exterior , since and have smooth inverses. Its pullback satisfies and , while . Substitution into the RN metric in [F1] gives the displayed . The starting RN datum is a geometric electrovac by the first clause of [F2]; the claim here is the exact coordinate pullback and its limit.
The RN two-form in [F1] pulls back to , which is the displayed .
At the coefficient formulas in the Statement are smooth for . Fix any compact subset of and choose a finite smooth atlas on its sphere projection. In each chart, is bounded below by a positive number and for . Every coordinate derivative of every displayed coefficient is therefore a continuous function of on a compact set containing ; uniform continuity implies that each such derivative converges uniformly on to its value at . Since this holds for every derivative order and the atlas is finite, the convergence is .
Substituting and into gives and , exactly [F3] with . By [F4] this limiting product satisfies the equations defined in [F5]. This identification is on only and does not add a horizon chart.
