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.

Statement
Adopt the stationary vacuum model and regular stationary data, with , maximal original exterior section and mass normalized to one. Use the common reference collar and its smooth Lorentzian Harrison family , . Here is the spacelike bifurcation surface, is the fixed Hawking Killing field, is its maximal flow, and is its fixed boost rate. On , let be the future unit normal to the reference section and the unit normal to within that section pointing into the exterior. These form an orthonormal basis of the -normal plane of , with timelike.
For every , , and , the flow fixes and
In particular, .
The original-section maximality premise is imposed on the actual physical exterior section for the original metric , so . Where this result uses the original reference section , it denotes the closure of this actual section. Maximality of a separately labelled chart-side region or another supplied section is not substituted for this premise. The spherical identification and the physical stationary end chart remain independent. Regular non-degenerate stationary vacuum spacetime Spacelike sections, maximality and lapse–shift data

A local flow follows integral curves, and the maximal integral curve through a point is unique. Local and global flows generated by a vector field Through each point there is a unique maximal integral curve For a smooth vector field on a smooth manifold , the set of pairs for which the maximal integral curve from is defined at is open in , and evaluation along those curves is the unique smooth maximal local flow. The fundamental theorem on flows
If a Killing field vanishes on a spacelike surface and its normal derivative has boost matrix in a future-timelike and outward-spacelike orthonormal basis, its flow differential has the corresponding hyperbolic boost matrix wherever the flow is defined.

Proof
Given: The model, collar, fields and parameter ranges in the Statement.
Goal: Prove the displayed normal action and its zero-rapidity specialization.
Fix and , and put . Since vanishes along , for . By the Killing equation, , so preserves the normal plane. The collar gives . Write ; skewness gives and . Thus has the matrix required in [F4] in the ordered basis .
The constant curve at is an integral curve of on all of . By maximality and uniqueness it is the maximal integral curve through , with domain . Apply the maximal-flow theorem in [F3] to the smooth field on its open neighborhood of : its smooth maximal flow has open domain and evaluates the maximal integral curves. Thus and for every real . For each such , openness gives a neighborhood of on which the time- map is smooth, so exists. Applying [F4] with the matrix from step 1.1 gives and . Linearity and the hyperbolic addition formulas yield the displayed action for every real ; setting gives the particular formula.
Source notes
These premises specify the generated conditional scope and are not attributed to the original article. The substantive local horizon conclusions are retained. The immutable original extraction is unchanged; in particular, original Theorem 1.1 retains its unresolved source-assessment status.
