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.
Budgeted Simon recovery with explicit failure branch
Definition
Input: A promised Simon oracle with , output width , and a supplied rational failure tolerance with positive binary integers . Set .
Instructions:
- If , return the unique nonzero one-bit string immediately, using zero queries.
- Otherwise form by binary shift-and-add multiplication, divide by using binary long division with , and set if and otherwise. Start with an empty reduced row-echelon basis.
- For at most trials, run One Simon Fourier-sampling sample once. Reduce its row against the current pivot rows in increasing pivot-column order. Discard it if the residual row is zero. Otherwise insert it at its least nonzero coordinate as a new pivot, clear that pivot column from the old rows by XOR, and maintain the pivot order. Stop sampling as soon as the basis reaches rank .
- If the basis reaches rank , form the matrix of its rows, call Gaussian elimination over F2 for Simon recovery, and output the returned vector. If all trials are used before rank is reached, return FAIL.
Every execution has at most oracle queries. Each sample uses Hadamard gates and two finite measurements; no controlled or inverse query is used. Under the Classical bit-operation cost model, classical basis maintenance costs bit operations, the final row reduction costs , and computing by schoolbook integer arithmetic costs bit operations, where is the total binary input length of . The total classical bit bound is therefore . The correctness and failure bound are proved in Simon recovery succeeds with probability at least 1-delta.

Dependency tree · two levels
27 results within two dependency steps 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.
