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.
Uniqueness forces an extended axial field to commute
Statement
Let a relative datum as in Relative stationary deformation and extension obstruction have the following uniqueness property: two global Killing fields of agreeing on a nonempty open set agree on all of . If has any global Killing extension , then on . Consequently, for this uniqueness property, a commuting-extension obstruction excludes every global Killing extension of , not just those initially assumed to commute.
Facts & Assumptions
On the relative datum has . Relative stationary deformation and extension obstruction
A bracket of smooth Killing fields is Killing. The bracket of two Killing fields is Killing
The stated uniqueness property is an explicit premise of this local implication, not an assertion proved here.
Proof
Given: The datum, uniqueness property and a global Killing extension .
Goal: Show the extension commutes with .
The global field is Killing by [F2]. Since , its bracket with vanishes on the open set . Equality of restrictions on an open set includes the derivatives defining the bracket.
Apply the stated uniqueness property to the global Killing fields and zero: they agree on , hence on . Thus . If a commuting extension is forbidden, the existence of any Killing extension contradicts that prohibition.
