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.

Piecewise C^1 Fourier series converges to midpoint values

Statement

Assume the Axiom of Countable Choice.

Let f:R→R be one-periodic. Assume there is a partition 0=x0<x1<⋯<xm=1 such that, for each j, the restriction of f to (xj−1,xj) extends to a C1 function on [xj−1,xj]. Then for every x∈R,

SNf(x)→f(x+)+f(x−)2as N→∞.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The Axiom of Countable Choice, a one-periodic real function f and a partition 0=x0<⋯<xm=1 such that each restriction f∣(xj−1,xj) extends to a C1 function on [xj−1,xj].

[L1]

Assuming the Axiom of Countable Choice, a one-periodic bounded-variation function satisfies the Dirichlet-Jordan convergence theorem (Dirichlet-Jordan pointwise convergence).

[L2]

A C1 function on a compact interval is of bounded variation (C1 implies Lipschitz, Lipschitz implies absolutely continuous, and absolutely continuous implies continuous and bounded variation).

Proof

1.1L2givenalgebra

For each j, let fj denote the C1 extension of f∣(xj−1,xj) to [xj−1,xj]. By [L2], each fj has bounded variation on its interval. Summing those finitely many variations and adding the finitely many endpoint jumps shows that the one-period representative of f has bounded variation on [0,1], including the periodic seam between 1− and 0+.

2.1L1step 1.1∎

Apply [L1] to that one-period bounded-variation representative. It yields SNf(x)→f(x+)+f(x−)2 for every x∈R, which is the claimed midpoint-value convergence.

Dependency tree · two levels

18 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.
