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.

Relative computability and relative enumerability

Definition

Fix the canonical binary numeral for each natural number (with zero encoded as 0). For an oracle X⊆N, an oracle program is a finite deterministic machine program with ordinary transitions as in The one-step configuration relation, together with query instructions. A query instruction reads a finite binary numeral q delimited on the tape and selects one of two specified successor states according as q∈X or q∉X; it leaves the tape and head unchanged. Malformed queries select the negative successor. On input n, start in the initial state with its numeral at the left end of an otherwise blank tape and the head at position zero. Iterate these transitions until an accepting or rejecting state is entered, if that ever happens.

A set A⊆N is X-computable when some such program halts on every numeral input and accepts exactly the members of A. It is X-c.e. when some such program accepts exactly the members of A; on nonmembers it may reject or run forever. Write A≤TX for X-computability. A function f:N→N is total X-computable when some such oracle program halts on every numeral input n with the numeral of f(n) as its delimited output.

An oracle program still makes finitely many transitions on any halting run; it does not read an infinite oracle at once.

2 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.
