Throughout, MMM is a unital C*-algebra with a partial order making it star-ordered, XXX is a complex Banach space, and e:X∗→Me:X^*\to Me:X∗→M is an isometric conjugate-linear isomorphism, so MMM is a von Neumann algebra with predual XXX (the Lean hypothesis e). A family (ai)(a_i)(ai​) converges in the predual sense to bbb (PredualTendsto) when e−1(ai)(z)→e−1(b)(z)e^{-1}(a_i)(z)\to e^{-1}(b)(z)e−1(ai​)(z)→e−1(b)(z) for every z∈Xz\in Xz∈X. A cochain of degree kkk is a bounded complex kkk-linear map Mk→MM^k\to MMk→M, and ∂\partial∂ (differentialValue) is the Hochschild differential (∂f)(v0,…,vk)=v0f(v1,…,vk)+∑j<k(−1)j+1f(…,vjvj+1,… )+(−1)k+1f(v0,…,vk−1)vk(\partial f)(v_0,\dots,v_k)=v_0f(v_1,\dots,v_k)+\sum_{j<k}(-1)^{j+1}f(\dots,v_jv_{j+1},\dots)+(-1)^{k+1}f(v_0,\dots,v_{k-1})v_k(∂f)(v0​,…,vk​)=v0​f(v1​,…,vk​)+∑j<k​(−1)j+1f(…,vj​vj+1​,…)+(−1)k+1f(v0​,…,vk−1​)vk​. The hypothesis NoFiniteCentralSummand M says that a central projection ppp whose corner pMppMppMp is finite (every isometry of the corner is unitary) must vanish. A partial isometry (PartialIso) is an element vvv with vv∗v=vvv^*v=vvv∗v=v; its initial and final projections are v∗vv^*vv∗v and vv∗vv^*vv∗. Let MMM be nontrivial with no finite central summand, and let c0,c1,…c_0,c_1,\dotsc0​,c1​,… be isometries (ci∗ci=1c_i^*c_i=1ci∗​ci​=1) with orthogonal final projections whose finite sums tend to 111 in the predual sense. Let A\mathcal AA be the *-algebra generated by the elements cicj∗c_ic_j^*ci​cj∗​ (countableMatrixAlgebra c). Every bounded cocycle fff of degree n+2n+2n+2 that is A\mathcal AA-multimodular has a bounded primitive: there is ggg with ∂g=f\partial g=f∂g=f.

Formalization Note The statement is verbatim from OpenAI's Lean development, with the listed Definitions imported in place of the upstream modules; the definitions are supporting code for this statement. Only the keyword lemma, where used upstream, becomes theorem, and a leading include ... in or omit ... in moves to the preamble. It is a step of the Lean proof of the vanishing of higher bounded Hochschild cohomology.

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, with reuse governed by our licensing terms.
