Source. Theorem 1.2, PDF p. 3 of arXiv:math/0409279v2, the copy read for this card.
Statement
Let
be two systems, each with distinct positive integer moduli. Put
Thus is the least common multiple of all moduli in the two systems.
If an integer does not divide and
then and are identical.
Here is any integer not dividing ; positivity is not assumed. The source's Remark 1.3 (PDF p. 3) takes to recover Znám's 1975 extension of Stein's uniqueness theorem: forces .
Proof pointer. The proof follows Theorem 1.1 in Section 2 and starts on PDF p. 5. It was not reconstructed or independently checked here.
