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 Jacobian matrix of partial derivatives and the gradient in the scalar-valued case
Definition
If every partial derivative of exists, the Jacobian matrix is . For scalar-valued , its gradient is
with coordinates understood in the standard basis (The standard list with and for is an ordered basis of ; hence , and is the zero space with basis and dimension ). The partial derivatives are those of Directional derivatives and partial derivatives of a map .
Depends on
- Directional derivatives and partial derivatives of a map $U\subseteq\mathbb{R}^m\to\mathbb{R}^n$
- The Euclidean inner product $\langle x,y\rangle = \sum_{k<n} x_k y_k$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$
- The standard list $e : n \to F^{n}$ with $e_i(i) = 1_F$ and $e_i(j) = 0_F$ for $j \ne i$ is an ordered basis of $F^{n}$; hence $\dim_F F^{n} = n$, and $F^{0}$ is the zero space with basis $\varnothing$ and dimension $0$

31 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.
