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.

Let , , and let be a finite on-site dimension as in Local spin matrix algebras and their factor inclusions. Let be a on-site Hamiltonian, with energy unit J, and set where has unit J and has unit J. Let have unit J s. The consistent local densities have a unique state extension to the norm-completed quasi-local algebra by Consistent local densities extend to an algebraic state, with local restrictions Define the onsite interaction by , the copy of at site , and for all other finite nonempty . Let be its thermodynamic dynamics under Strongly continuous thermodynamic spin automorphism group. Then is the unique -KMS state for in the physical-time strip convention of Physical-time KMS strip equilibrium condition, whose width is seconds. The conclusion is mathematical; it does not assert relaxation or select a physical preparation.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The finite spin system, , the exact finite-matrix interfaces [A2], , , and .
Countable Choice is the stated assumption of the quasi-local completion and of consistent-state extension (The Axiom of Countable Choice (), Norm-completed quasi-local quantum spin algebra, Consistent local densities extend to an algebraic state).
Assume the exact finite-matrix C*-identity and density/state norm interface supplied by Finite matrix C-star algebra and density-state duality. Its current proof supplies these finite-dimensional clauses and has an owner-recorded Step-1 ready record; that authoring-readiness record is not independent proof acceptance. The proof below is conditional on the stated interface.
Local spin matrix algebras and their factor inclusions: for every finite , is the matrix algebra on the finite tensor product of the -dimensional site spaces; nested regions use tensor-with-identity inclusions.
Norm-completed quasi-local quantum spin algebra and Quasi-local algebra completion and locality: is norm dense in its norm completion ; the conditional C*-structure uses [A1]–[A2].
Uniformly bounded finite-range quantum spin interaction: consists of finite-region self-adjoint matrices with finite range and bounded per-site norm; , otherwise, is such an interaction, and its finite-volume Hamiltonian is .
Strongly continuous thermodynamic spin automorphism group: under Countable Choice and the finite-matrix C*-identity condition, the finite-volume onsite dynamics have a thermodynamic limit that is a strongly continuous group of isometric *-automorphisms. Its current proof retains that finite-matrix condition explicitly.
Consistent local densities extend to an algebraic state: positive trace-one densities on all finite regions that agree under partial traces extend uniquely to a bounded normalized positive functional on , under its stated Countable Choice and finite-matrix density/norm hypotheses.
Physical-time KMS strip equilibrium condition: for each , a -KMS state has a bounded function continuous on , holomorphic inside, with lower edge and upper edge .
Uniform local Gibbs strip limits: for any pointwise-convergent sequence of the specified finite-volume Gibbs state extensions, each fixed pair of local observables has a bounded continuous strip function, holomorphic inside, with the two limiting KMS boundary values. This is a local-pair statement only. Its proof explicitly assumes the finite-matrix interfaces in [A2]; the current supplier and its transitive inputs have current authoring-readiness records documented in batch-43 dependency evidence, not independent proof acceptance.
Bounded KMS strip norm and zero-edge uniqueness: bounded continuous functions holomorphic inside the same strip obey the three-lines boundary norm bound; equality on the lower edge determines the full function, including the upper edge.
Finite KMS condition exactly determines the Gibbs density: on a finite-dimensional matrix algebra with self-adjoint Hamiltonian , physical-time dynamics has exactly the Gibbs state as its -KMS state. Its proof uses the finite Hermitian spectral-calculus clause [F11] and the finite-matrix interface [A2].
Locally uniform limits of holomorphic functions are holomorphic and their derivatives converge locally uniformly: a locally uniform limit of holomorphic scalar functions on an open set is holomorphic.
Finite matrix spectral and state calculus: every finite-dimensional Hermitian matrix has an orthonormal eigenbasis with real eigenvalues, and the finite matrix trace is cyclic and basis-independent. Its current proof correctly handles normalized rational-coordinate approximants; the owner-recorded Step-1 ready record is authoring readiness only. The finite C*-identity and converse density/state correspondence are supplied separately by [A2].
Proof
Given: [A1]–[A2], [F1]–[F11], , , , and the onsite interaction .
The finite Hermitian spectral calculus [F11] diagonalizes with real eigenvalues; exponentiating them gives and a positive trace-one matrix . For nested finite regions , the product-basis trace factorization and give . Thus the family is consistent, and [F5] defines a unique state with the displayed local restrictions.
Let . In a finite-volume product eigenbasis, has eigenvalues equal to sums of the corresponding one-site eigenvalues by [F11]. Therefore and its partition function is , so its normalized Gibbs density is . For every finite , define placing the tensor factors on and respectively. These densities are consistent: removing a site outside traces a factor to , while tracing sites in commutes with the displayed partial trace because both are finite tensor-basis sums. Therefore [F5] gives an algebraic state on . If is local in , then for all sufficiently large , and . For arbitrary , choose local with using [F2]; since both states have norm one, for all sufficiently large . Hence pointwise on .
Applying the local-pair conclusion of [F7] to this particular pointwise-convergent finite Gibbs sequence gives, for every local , a bounded continuous strip function , holomorphic inside, with lower and upper edges and . This is precisely the local conclusion of [F7]; no whole-algebra KMS conclusion is attributed to that supplier.
Let and choose local sequences , . On either boundary, the correlation difference for local pairs is bounded by because has norm one and is isometric by [F4]. Decomposing the difference into the two local-pair differences and , [F8] gives the same bound throughout the strip; its zero-edge uniqueness makes this decomposition equal to . The right side tends to zero, since the convergent sequences have bounded norms. Thus is uniformly Cauchy on the closed strip. Its limit is bounded and continuous there and is holomorphic inside by [F10]. Norm continuity of , , and multiplication gives the required lower and upper boundary values. Therefore is KMS for all .
Let be any -KMS state on . For a finite region , every larger finite-volume Hamiltonian has the form , where is a sum of onsite terms supported outside and therefore commutes with every . Hence whenever . Taking the thermodynamic limit in [F4] shows that is invariant under and its restriction is exactly this finite-dimensional conjugation group. Restricting the KMS functions to shows that is a finite-dimensional -KMS state. By [F9], its density is . Thus and agree on every finite local algebra; continuity and density of imply . This proves uniqueness.
Remarks
The current finite-matrix and KMS suppliers are used at their inspected conditional interfaces. The proof does not infer that a finite Gibbs trace is an infinite-volume density matrix; it constructs an algebraic product state and proves the full KMS condition by local-pair strip limits and norm approximation.
