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.

Comparing the two quantitative density scales

Example

Fix C1,C2>0. For 0<x<1/2 put L=log2(1/x), D1=2C1L2 and D2=2C2L2/log2L. The ratio of logarithmic losses is log2(1/D2)log2(1/D1)=C2C1log2L, and tends to zero as x decreases to zero. Consequently D2>D1 for all sufficiently small x. With C1=C2=C and x=1/16, the fractions are D1=216C and D2=28C.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: C1,C2>0, 0<x<1/2, and L,D1,D2 as defined in the example.

[F1]

From Fox sudakov quantitative induced density bound: δ=2CH(log2(1/x))2

[F2]

From Loglog quantitative induced density bound: δ=2CH(log2(1/x))2/log2log2(1/x).

[F3]

logbx=logxlogb,blogbx=x,logb(bu)=u(uR). (Change of base and inversion of the positive-base real exponential).

Verification

1.1

The two fractions have the forms in [F1] and [F2], with their constants allowed to differ. Since L>1, both losses are positive. Applying [F3] to their reciprocals yields losses C1L2 and C2L2/log2L. Dividing and cancelling L2>0 gives C2/(C1log2L).

2.1

For any r>0, take xr=22C2/(C1r)+1(0,1/2). If 0<x<xr, then L>2C2/(C1r)+1 and log2L>C2/(C1r)+1, so the ratio is less than r. This proves the stated zero limit. Taking r=1 makes the second loss smaller than the first; strict increase of base-two exponentiation gives D2>D1 after negating the losses.

3.1

At x=1/16 one has L=4 and log2L=2. For equal constants C>0, the losses are 16C and 8C, so D1=216C<28C=D2. The eventual comparison above does not assert dominance throughout the interval for unrelated constants.

Dependency tree · two levels

14 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.
