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.
Weighted total variation for probability measures
Definition
Let , let be Borel measurable, and let be Borel probability measures on with and . Define their -weighted total-variation distance by The moment hypotheses make every integral in the supremum finite. This is the signed-measure test-function norm used in weighted-variation bounds. For it has the usual factor of two relative to the event-supremum probability distance in Total variation distance for probability laws. Here a Borel probability measure is in the sense of Probability measures and probability spaces, on the Borel sigma-algebra of The Borel sigma-algebra of a topological space.

Dependency tree · two levels
8 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.
