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.
Remark 1.1: maximal slice and decay
PDF p. 4: Remark 1.1
Statement
The article states that a maximal slice in its regular non-degenerate stationary vacuum setting can be obtained from [15], and that the required decay can then be obtained by elliptic estimates. This records the existence/decay claim as stated, not an independent verification of [15].

Facts & Assumptions
Given: The stationary-vacuum model and exactly the article regular-spacetime hypotheses.
Goal: Supply the maximal section and its required differentiated end decay while preserving the original attribution.
The authoring convention is ZFC, including the Axiom of Choice. The Axiom of Choice
The physical model assumes smooth four-dimensional general relativity with a stationary Ricci-flat geometry and the specified end normalization. Stationary vacuum model and asymptotic normalization
The regular-spacetime hypotheses supply the exterior Cauchy section, complete stationary exterior flow and smooth transverse nonexpanding bifurcate boundary; maximality is not part of this definition. Regular non-degenerate stationary vacuum spacetime
The authored completion chain matches all class-(b) and exclusion hypotheses of the precise CW external input and supplies a maximal bifurcation-boundary section with Cauchy interior in exactly the original exterior. Maximal bifurcation-boundary section under the original regular hypotheses Stationary maximal hypersurface existence with a horizon boundary
The independent end-gauge chain supplies the required stationary chart adapted to that same maximal section, with differentiated metric decay through order six. The same maximal slice has the differentiated article end gauge and a limiting old time Differentiated asymptotic bounds and parameter uniformity
Proof
Apply the completion-chain conclusion to the regular vacuum geometry. Its positive-mass, full-jet reflection, vacuum development and abstract collar construction supply a strongly causal stationary ambient spacetime with complete stationary field, closed acausal section with boundary , and interior domain of dependence exactly . The precise CW input therefore gives a smooth maximal section whose boundary is and whose interior is Cauchy in . This uses neither a maximality hypothesis from MainTheorem1.1 nor global axisymmetry.
Apply the end-gauge conclusion to this same maximal section and stationary vacuum end. It gives a stationary chart with and the section at , satisfying , , and , with the stated stationary mass normalization. These are the required differentiated bounds. Thus the maximal-slice existence and elliptic-decay claims have their separate matched inputs; the article citation only identifies the original remark.
Source notes
The maximality explicitly assumed in MainTheorem1.1 is not a premise of this proof. The existence theorem and the stronger end normalization are separate imported/local chains, with their actual source hypotheses and reading limits retained in those suppliers. No independent reconstruction of the cited nonlinear existence theorem, no separate proof review and no article-defect judgment is claimed.
