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.

A two-by-two inexact assembly ledger

Example

Use Euclidean norm on X=R2 and exact matrix/load A=(2112),f=(10). Approximate it by A~=A+E,E=(1/10000−1/100),f~=f. The exact coercivity and continuity constants are c=1 and C=3. The defect matrix is E=diag⁡(1/100,−1/100), so ∥E∥2=1/100<1/50; take the conservative certified δ=1/50, load defect η=0, and ∥Fh∥=1. The perturbed solve is u~=(19900/29999−10000/29999), while u=(2/3,−1/3). The transfer theorem gives the certified error ∥u−u~∥2≤1/49; the exact rational difference is also smaller than 1/49.

This is a finite algebraic error ledger illustrating how a certified assembly defect enters the perturbation theorem; it does not assert that this particular matrix is a panel matrix from a specified mesh.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The exact two-dimensional bilinear form, its perturbed matrix, the Euclidean norm, and the transfer theorem.

[F1]

If δ<c, a matrix defect and load defect give the stated Galerkin error bound (A certified matrix defect transfers to a Galerkin error bound).

Proof

1.1givenalgebra

The eigenvectors (1,1) and (1,−1) of A have eigenvalues 3 and 1, respectively. Hence xTAx≥∥x∥22 and ∥A∥2=3, so c=1, C=3. The defect matrix is diagonal with entries ±1/100, so ∥E∥2=1/100<1/50; alternatively ∥E∥2≤∥E∥F=2/100<1/50. Thus δ=1/50 is a certified Euclidean operator defect.

1.2givenalgebra

The determinant of A~ is (201⋅199)/10000−1=29999/10000, and its inverse applied to f gives u~=(19900/29999,−10000/29999)T. The exact inverse of A gives u=(2/3,−1/3)T. Their difference is (−298/89997,−1/89997)T, whose squared norm is 88805/899972<1/492 because 88805⋅2401=213220805<8099460009=899972.

The discrete space here is the whole two-dimensional space, so the exact Galerkin best-approximation term vanishes; c=1, δ=1/50, η=0, and ∥Fh∥=1. Applying [F1] gives ∥u−u~∥2≤(1/50)1−1/50=149, which agrees with the direct rational check in step 1.2.
