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.

Area of an elementary Green region as a boundary line integral

Statement

For a finite elementary Green region D with positively oriented boundary,

cont⁡(D)=12∫∂D(x dy−y dx)=∫∂Dx dy=−∫∂Dy dx.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The finite elementary Green region and positive orientation in the Statement.

[L1]

Green's theorem gives ∫∂DP dx+Q dy=∬D(∂xQ−∂yP) dA for C1 functions on a neighbourhood of D (Green's theorem for finite unions of elementary regions).

[L2]

For a Jordan set, ∬D1 dA=cont⁡(D) (The Riemann integral of a bounded function over a bounded Jordan measurable set).

Proof

technique · direct
1.1

Choose P(x,y)=−y/2 and Q(x,y)=x/2. Then ∂xQ−∂yP=1, so [L1] and [L2] give cont⁡(D)=12∫∂D(x dy−y dx).

1.2

Choose P=0 and Q=x. Again the scalar curl is 1, so [L1] and [L2] give cont⁡(D)=∫∂Dx dy.

1.3

Choose P=−y and Q=0. Its scalar curl is 1, so [L1] and [L2] give cont⁡(D)=−∫∂Dy dx.

2.1

Steps 1.1 to 1.3 are the three asserted formulas. They include the one-piece case because [L1] includes every nonempty finite elementary decomposition.

Dependency tree · two levels

13 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.
