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.
Undirected structural graph of a Hermitian matrix
Definition
Let satisfy , where . Define a real symmetric pattern matrix by and, for , set exactly when ; otherwise set both entries to zero. Since , this pattern records exactly the undirected off-diagonal support of .
Apply the graph and elimination-ordering convention of Structural graphs and ordered symmetric elimination to . Its structural graph is the Hermitian structural graph of , and its filled graphs are the symbolic pattern used for Hermitian elimination. The real matrix records only support; numerical Schur complements are formed from .

Dependency tree · two levels
3 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.
