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.
The integral of a continuous complex derivative over every closed rectifiable contour is zero
Statement
If is holomorphic on an open set, is continuous there, and is a closed rectifiable contour in that set, then .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: A function and a closed rectifiable contour as in the Statement.
The contour fundamental theorem gives (The line integral of a continuous function admitting a primitive is that primitive's endpoint increment along every rectifiable path).
A contour is closed exactly when its endpoint values agree (Rectifiable complex contours, reversal, concatenation, closedness, and orientation).
Proof
Apply [L1] and then [L2]: the endpoint increment is .
Thus the integral vanishes, including for a constant closed contour.
