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.
Finite sectional coagulation-fragmentation balance with reported overflow
Definition
Input a grid , a nonnegative grid population , a nonnegative reservoir mass , symmetric nonnegative aggregation rates , nonnegative parent fragmentation rates , and daughter-count measures supported in with . For each ordered pair use event rate . If , remove one particle from each parent slot and add the fixed-pivot measure ; if , remove both parents and add mass to , with no retained last-bin particle. For each parent , use fragmentation rate , remove its parent particle, and add to the grid population.
The resulting finite-dimensional autonomous ODE is the sum of these event rates times their stated increments, with equal to the total overflow-mass rate. Invalid grids, negative input populations, or a daughter measure with support outside return invalid-input. The reservoir is diagnostic truncation mass and has no later fragmentation or coagulation law.

Dependency tree · one level
2 results within one dependency step of this one, each drawn at its shortest distance from it. An arrow runs from a result to what uses it, so the chart reads left to right and ends at this result, which carries a heavier outline. Every node is a link to that result.
