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.

Chronological equivariance and the no-white-hole condition

Statement

Use the chronological relations of Causal exterior, chronological boundaries and Cauchy data. If a time-orientation-preserving isometry ψ satisfies ψ(E)=E, then ψ(I±(E))=I±(E) and ψ(∂I±(E))=∂I±(E). In particular this applies to every ϕv and E=Mend of Complete stationary saturation of the end. Thus B=M∖I−(Mend), W=M∖I+(Mend) and N=∂I−(Mend) are stationary-invariant, and W=∅ is exactly M=I+(Mend). Chronological sets here are defined by the same curve formulas for any subset E, without requiring E open.

Facts & Assumptions

[F1]

Chronological futures and pasts are defined by existence of future timelike curves, and boundaries are closure minus interior. Causal exterior, chronological boundaries and Cauchy data

[F2]

Every ϕv is an isometry and the saturated end is invariant under it. Complete stationary saturation of the end

Proof

Given: The action, set and causal conventions in the Statement.

Goal: Prove the chronological and boundary invariance and the no-white-hole identity.

1.1F1

A time-orientation-preserving isometry maps future timelike curves to future timelike curves. Applying it to a curve from E to p gives ψ(I+(E))⊂I+(E); applying its inverse gives the reverse inclusion. The identical argument with the curve direction reversed proves the past identity. As a diffeomorphism, ψ maps open sets to open sets, and it and its inverse preserve limits, so it preserves interiors and closures and hence the displayed boundaries.

2.1F1F2step 1.1∎

The connected one-parameter action preserves time orientation: along v↦(dϕv)pV, for a fixed future timelike V, timelikeness is preserved and the sign relative to a continuous future time-orientation field cannot change without becoming zero. At v=0 the vector is future. Apply step 1.1 and [F2]. Complements are preserved by a bijection, and M∖I+(Mend)=∅ is equivalent to M=I+(Mend) by elementary set complementation. This proves all assertions.
