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.

Finite-mode occupation configurations: fermionic exclusion counts, bosonic counts and truncated dimensions

Statement

Assume the Axiom of Countable Choice (The Axiom of Countable Choice (ACω)). Let H be a complex Hilbert space of finite dimension d≥1 with orthonormal basis (e1,…,ed) (Hilbert space), let H⊗n and P±(n) be as in Slater and symmetric occupation-number bases of the finite-dimensional permutation sectors (with P±(0)=idC), and let W(n,d)={λ∈Nd:∑jλj=n} and mλ be the symmetric vectors of that theorem. Then:

(a) fermionic configurations: the map J↦1J is a bijection from the set of n-element subsets of {1,…,d} onto the set {λ∈{0,1}d:∑jλj=n}; consequently dim⁡ran⁡P−(n)=#{λ∈{0,1}d:∑jλj=n},∑n=0ddim⁡ran⁡P−(n)=2d;

(b) bosonic configurations: the assignment λ↦mλ induces a bijection from W(n,d) onto the set of lines spanned by the orthogonal basis (mλ), so the number of bosonic configurations of total occupation exactly n is (n+d−1n)=(n+d−1d−1), and for every N≥0 the number of bosonic configurations of total occupation at most N is ∑n=0Ndim⁡ran⁡P+(n)=∑n=0N(n+d−1d−1)=(N+dd);

(c) exclusion counts: no fermionic configuration has an entry ≥2, so the antisymmetric Slater index set contains no λ with λj≥2 for some j; for n>d there is no fermionic configuration at all and ran⁡P−(n)={0}, while for every n and every j the bosonic configuration with λj=n and all other entries 0 occurs, so no occupation bound holds in the symmetric sector;

(d) consistency with the total occupation: for every λ∈W(n,d) one has ∑jλj=n, and for every fermionic configuration λ∈{0,1}d∩{∑jλj=n} likewise; in particular the total occupation equals the particle number n in both sectors.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The finite-dimensional complex Hilbert space H of dimension d≥1 with orthonormal basis (e1,…,ed), the sectors ran⁡P±(n) of the cited theorem, and n,N≥0.

[F0]

Empty configuration, directly. At n=0, the Statement's conventions give H⊗0=C and P±(0)=idC. The empty tensor is the scalar 1, so the empty symmetric vector is m0=1, where 0 is the unique element of W(0,d). Thus both sector ranges are one-dimensional and have this single normalized basis vector; the unique fermionic configuration is the indicator of the empty subset and is also 0. These are direct calculations in C, not consequences of the cited theorem.

[F1]

Occupation basis for positive particle number. For n≥1, the Slater vectors eJ∧, J⊆{1,…,d} with ∣J∣=n, form an orthonormal basis of ran⁡P−(n), and dim⁡ran⁡P−(n)=(dn) with ran⁡P−(n)={0} for n>d; the symmetric vectors (mλ)λ∈W(n,d) form an orthogonal basis of ran⁡P+(n) with dim⁡ran⁡P+(n)=(n+d−1n); each eJ∧ has occupation vector 1J and each mλ has occupation vector λ (Slater and symmetric occupation-number bases of the finite-dimensional permutation sectors clauses (b),(c),(d)).

[F2]

Binomial counts and symmetry. (dn) is the number of n-element subsets of {1,…,d}, (n0)=(nn)=1, and (nk)=0 for k>n (The set [A]k of k-element subsets and the binomial coefficient (nk):=∣[n]k∣); also (n+d−1d−1)=(n+d−1n) ((nk) k! (n−k)!=n! for k≤n; hence (nk) k!=nk‾, the quotient n!/(k!(n−k)!) is a natural number, and (nk)=(nn−k) clause 3, with N=n+d−1 and k=d−1).

[F4]

Pascal rule and hockey stick. For all n,k∈N, (n+1k+1)=(nk)+(nk+1) and ∑i<n+1(ik)=(n+1k+1) as an N-valued finite sum (Pascal's rule (n+1k+1)=(nk)+(nk+1), and the hockey-stick identity ∑i≤n(ik)=(n+1k+1)); the sector formula of the theorem is stated for the finite sums there defined.

Proof

technique · direct; compare the two index sets of the occupation basis with the configuration sets, count them with the cited finite-counting facts, and read the vanishing statement off the antisymmetric sector

Given: The data of the statement and [F0]-[F5].

1.1F0F1F2algebraconstruct

[Fermionic configurations] Let J⊆{1,…,d} have ∣J∣=n; its indicator 1J lies in {0,1}d with ∑j1J(j)=n. Conversely, if λ∈{0,1}d has ∑jλj=n, then Jλ:={j:λj=1} satisfies ∣Jλ∣=n and 1Jλ=λ. The two assignments are inverse bijections, so the number of fermionic configurations of total occupation n equals the number of n-element subsets, which is (dn) by [F2]. For n≥1, this is dim⁡ran⁡P−(n) by [F1]; for n=0, the dimension is 1=(d0) by [F0] and the boundary value in [F2]. This proves (a)'s dimension assertion in all cases.

1.2F0F1F2F3algebra

[Bosonic configurations] If n=0, then W(0,d)={0} and m0=1 by [F0], so its assignment is a bijection onto the single basis line of ran⁡P+(0)=C. If n≥1, the assignment λ↦mλ is injective by the linear independence of the orthogonal family [F1], and its image spans ran⁡P+(n), so it is a bijection onto the set of basis lines. In either case, the number of its elements is ∣W(n,d)∣=(n+d−1d−1)=(n+d−1n) by [F3] and [F2], the first assertion of (b).

1.3F0F1F2F4algebra

[Truncated bosonic dimension] For n≥1 the dimension dim⁡ran⁡P+(n)=(n+d−1n)=(n+d−1d−1) is given by [F1] and [F2]; at n=0 it is 1=(d−1d−1) by [F0] and the boundary value of the binomial coefficient. Thus ∑n=0Ndim⁡ran⁡P+(n)=∑n=0N(n+d−1d−1). Substituting i:=n+d−1, the terms with i<d−1 vanish by the boundary values of the binomial coefficient, so the hockey stick [F4] with k=d−1 and upper index N+d−1 gives ∑i=0N+d−1(id−1)=(N+dd); this completes (b).

2.1F0F1F5step 1.1algebra

[Fermionic row sum] Summing the dimensions over all particle numbers, using [F0] at n=0 and [F1] for 1≤n≤d and the vanishing for n>d, gives ∑n=0ddim⁡ran⁡P−(n)=∑n=0d(dn)=2d by the row sum [F5], which completes (a).

2.2F1step 1.1step 1.2algebra

[Exclusion counts] By construction every fermionic configuration lies in {0,1}d, so no entry is ≥2; for n>d the set {0,1}d∩{∑jλj=n} is empty because at most d entries can be equal to 1, and then ran⁡P−(n)={0} by [F1], while for the bosonic sector the configuration λ(j) with λj(j)=n and all other entries 0 lies in W(n,d) for every j, so no occupation bound holds there; this is (c).

3.1step 1.1step 1.2step 2.1step 1.3step 2.2algebra∎

[Consistency and assembly] Each λ∈W(n,d) satisfies ∑jλj=n by definition, and each fermionic configuration in {0,1}d∩{∑jλj=n} does so as well, which is (d); step 1.1 and 2.1 prove (a), steps 1.2 and 1.3 prove (b), and step 2.2 proves (c). Only the cited spectral basis and finite-counting facts were used.
