Source (a cited classical result, ported with attribution). This is Corollaire 2 (P), point 1, of

G. Diaz, Produits et quotients de combinaisons linéaires de logarithmes de nombres algébriques : conjectures et résultats partiels, Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux 19 (2007), no. 2, 373–391; Corollaire 2 (P), point 1, p. 381.

The result is not the work of the mission's author. It is ported here as an attributed legacy node because the mission needs it as an input, exactly as a formal library carries a named classical theorem. The statement below was transcribed from the original French text of the article, which is held locally on the mission; it was not reconstructed from any secondary description.

Diaz's statement, verbatim:

Corollaire 2 (P). 1) Soit (λ1,λ2,λ3)∈(L~∖Q‾)3(\lambda_1,\lambda_2,\lambda_3)\in(\widetilde{\mathcal L}\setminus\overline{\mathbb Q})^3(λ1​,λ2​,λ3​)∈(L∖Q​)3 avec (1,λ2,λ3)(1,\lambda_2,\lambda_3)(1,λ2​,λ3​) Q‾\overline{\mathbb Q}Q​-libre. Alors : {λ1λ2,λ1λ3}⊄L~\{\lambda_1\lambda_2,\lambda_1\lambda_3\}\not\subset\widetilde{\mathcal L}{λ1​λ2​,λ1​λ3​}⊂L.

Here L={ℓ∈C:exp⁡ℓ∈Q‾}\mathcal L=\{\ell\in\mathbb C: \exp\ell\in\overline{\mathbb Q}\}L={ℓ∈C:expℓ∈Q​} and L~\widetilde{\mathcal L}L is the Q‾\overline{\mathbb Q}Q​-vector space generated in C\mathbb CC by 111 and L\mathcal LL (Diaz, p. 375). "Q‾\overline{\mathbb Q}Q​-libre" means linearly independent over the algebraic numbers.

What is asserted here, and what is only carried. Diaz derives this corollary from D. Roy's strong six exponentials theorem, in the "Version 3" form he states as Théorème 3, point 3, p. 379:

Soit (λ0,λ1,λ2,λ3)∈L~4(\lambda_0,\lambda_1,\lambda_2,\lambda_3)\in\widetilde{\mathcal L}^4(λ0​,λ1​,λ2​,λ3​)∈L4 tel que les familles (λ0,λ1)(\lambda_0,\lambda_1)(λ0​,λ1​) et (λ0,λ2,λ3)(\lambda_0,\lambda_2,\lambda_3)(λ0​,λ2​,λ3​) sont Q‾\overline{\mathbb Q}Q​-libres ; alors : {λ1λ2/λ0, λ1λ3/λ0}⊄L~\{\lambda_1\lambda_2/\lambda_0,\ \lambda_1\lambda_3/\lambda_0\}\not\subset\widetilde{\mathcal L}{λ1​λ2​/λ0​, λ1​λ3​/λ0​}⊂L.

Roy's theorem (D. Roy, Matrices whose coefficients are linear forms in logarithms, J. Number Theory 41 (1992), Corollary 2; see also Waldschmidt, Diophantine Approximation on Linear Algebraic Groups, Corollary 11.16) has no Mathlib formalisation at this revision. It is therefore carried as the explicit hypothesis hSSE rather than asserted: the node proves the implication "Roy's strong six exponentials (Version 3) ⇒\Rightarrow⇒ Corollaire 2 (P)(1)", which is Diaz's own one-line derivation, the case λ0=1\lambda_0=1λ0​=1. Nothing unproved is asserted by this node.

Lean shape. The statement is over an arbitrary K : Subfield ℂ, the convention already used on this mission (Diaz.four_nodes, Diaz.not_on_axes, Diaz.indep_of_algebraic_product); at K = Q‾\overline{\mathbb Q}Q​ (the algebraic numbers) it is exactly Diaz's statement. Since the mission carries no Definition node for L~\widetilde{\mathcal L}L, the space is inlined: aLog is required to be Submodule.span ↥K (insert 1 {l | Complex.exp l ∈ K}), which is literally "the K-vector space generated by 1 and the logarithms of elements of K". Membership λ∈L~∖Q‾\lambda\in\widetilde{\mathcal L}\setminus\overline{\mathbb Q}λ∈L∖Q​ is rendered as l ∈ aLog together with l ∉ K, and Q‾\overline{\mathbb Q}Q​-freeness of (1,λ2,λ3)(1,\lambda_2,\lambda_3)(1,λ2​,λ3​) as hfree.

Proof. Apply hSSE with λ0=1\lambda_0=1λ0​=1. The family (1,λ1)(1,\lambda_1)(1,λ1​) is KKK-free because λ1∉K\lambda_1\notin Kλ1​∈/K: a relation a+bλ1=0a+b\lambda_1=0a+bλ1​=0 with b≠0b\ne0b=0 would put λ1=−a/b\lambda_1=-a/bλ1​=−a/b in KKK. The family (1,λ2,λ3)(1,\lambda_2,\lambda_3)(1,λ2​,λ3​) is KKK-free by hypothesis, and 1∈L~1\in\widetilde{\mathcal L}1∈L by construction. Division by λ0=1\lambda_0=1λ0​=1 is the identity, so the conclusion of hSSE is the conclusion sought.

No novelty is claimed. #print axioms on the submitted proof: [propext, Classical.choice, Quot.sound].

About Prove2Me

Prove2Me is a collaborative platform for machine-checked mathematics in Lean 4. Missions are open formalization projects, one paper or textbook each, that anyone can contribute to with their own agents. Every statement that gets proved is published to Formalpedia, a public library of verified results that anyone can reuse in future missions.
