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.

QSVT implementation of a bounded matrix function

Definition

Inputs. A nonzero finite-dimensional Hermitian matrix H, a scale α>0 with ∥H∥≤α, a supplied unit-normalized (1,a,εBE) block encoding of A=H/α in the sense of Finite block encoding, with designated compression A~ satisfying ∥A~−H/α∥≤εBE (and εBE=0 for exact access), a function f on σ(H), and a caller-supplied extension fˉ:[−α,α]→C agreeing with f on the spectrum. Let J be a nonempty subset of {0,1,2,3}. For each j∉J, supply an exact certificate that gj is identically zero on [−α,α]. For each j∈J, supply a positive scale γj satisfying ∣gj(t)∣≤γj on that interval, a tolerance τj≥0, a nonnegative degree bound dj, and a real polynomial pj of degree at most dj and parity dj mod 2 (including when pj=0), with ∣pj(x)∣≤1 on [−1,1] and ∣pj(x)−gj(αx)γj∣≤τj(−1≤x≤1). For each active component, also supply either a reflected-convention phase-list certificate of length dj+1 for which the real part of the QSP sequence's upper-left entry equals pj (exactly or within a certified uniform error bound), or, when pj has rational or exact algebraic coefficients, a positive rational phase-synthesis tolerance νj for OP1. The certificate's finite verification procedure and cost are included in the phase-source record. Any certified phase-generation or compilation error is recorded for the component and included in its implementation-error bound κj in Matrix-function transformation error and resource bound.

Here the four real component functions are g0(t)=ℜfˉ(t)+ℜfˉ(−t)2,g1(t)=ℜfˉ(t)−ℜfˉ(−t)2, g2(t)=ℑfˉ(t)+ℑfˉ(−t)2,g3(t)=ℑfˉ(t)−ℑfˉ(−t)2. Thus g0,g2 are even, g1,g3 are odd, and fˉ=g0+g1+ig2+ig3. The zero certificates and scale bounds give ∣fˉ(t)∣≤B:=∑j∈Jγj; the construction makes no optimal-normalization claim. For an identically zero target with fˉ=0, one may take J={0}, γ0=1, d0=0, τ0=0, and p0=0; the exact list Φ0=(π/2) certifies its phase source since the degree-zero QSP upper-left entry is eiπ/2=i.

Additional input. An LCU access record that supplies or compiles the coefficient-preparation unitary P, its inverse, and the required SELECT from the active component circuits, with all implementation costs declared as in Block-encoding oracle and implementation cost model.

Output. The LCU circuit W constructed with declared normalization B and designated top-left block W00. The error bound for W00 is given separately by Matrix-function transformation error and resource bound. If a supplied phase certificate fails its stated verification or OP1 returns a non-success result, return that failure and no block-encoding output.

Instructions. For each j∈J, verify its supplied phase-list certificate's length, reflected-convention polynomial identity or uniform error bound; if no list is supplied, run Real bounded-polynomial QSP phase synthesis under OP1 on pj with degree bound dj, required parity dj mod 2, and tolerance νj. Propagate any certificate, synthesis or compilation failure without producing a block-encoding output. Apply Quantum singular-value transformation circuit to the supplied block encoding to produce the singular-value transform block for pj, retaining separate ancillas and all inverse, controlled, projector-phase, compilation, and implementation-error costs. Since pj is real with known parity, the even or odd transform is selected by its parity. Any certified phase or implementation deviation from the ideal pj transform is included in κj.

Run LCU block-encoding construction on the component unitaries indexed by J, with unit component normalizations and coefficients cjγj, where c0=c1=1 and c2=c3=i. Its LCU normalization is B=∑j∈Jγj>0. Return its designated top-left block as an approximation to f(H)/B. OP1 and the matrix-function error theorem specify the phase and error obligations.

This algorithm does not claim a general efficient approximation theorem, automatic extension of f, or a finite bit-time phase compiler beyond the stated exact-algebraic/rational OP1 interface. Charge polynomial descriptions, root/phase generation, state preparation, SELECT, PREPARE and its inverse, all QSVT calls, gate compilation, and all output bits under the separate cost coordinates.
