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.

All-zero versus exactly-one-marked search promise

Definition

For every integer N≥1, use the identity encoding of Input encoding and size for algorithmic tasks and let PN={0N}∪{ei:1≤i≤N}, where 0N is the all-zero string and ei has a 1 exactly in coordinate i. This is a promise decision task in the sense of QA task and promise domain: its yes set is {ei:1≤i≤N}, its no set is {0N}, and its output is OR⁡(x).

For the associated search task, set ℓN=⌈log⁡2(N+1)⌉ and let bin⁡ℓN(k) be the length-ℓN binary expansion of k, most significant bit first and padded with leading zeros. Its promise domain is PN and its witness relation is RN={(0N,bin⁡ℓN(0))}∪{(ei,bin⁡ℓN(i)):1≤i≤N}. The output labels none and i mean these encoded strings for 0 and i, respectively. The marked query address corresponding to ei is j=i−1 in Boolean oracle query model for search lower bounds. Verifying a measured candidate costs a separate query. No correctness condition is imposed outside PN.

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.
