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.
Couette flow with the thermal wall entropy balance
Example
Let be periodic, , and fix , , , , and . Define
and , . This is a smooth positive steady solution with constant pressure , no-slip wall velocities and , and wall temperature at both walls. Per unit periodic length, the outward physical-entropy flux through the two thermal walls equals
This is a continuous wall-balance example; it specifies no discrete wall flux.
Verification
Given: The two-dimensional ideal-gas Navier–Stokes–Fourier model, periodic in and equal to in , and the displayed fields.
[F1] Ideal-gas compressible Navier–Stokes–Fourier model: , , and .
[F2] Smooth ideal-gas Navier–Stokes–Fourier entropy identity: physical entropy satisfies .
The profile has , so . Its internal-energy density is , hence [F1] gives . The velocity gradient has only , so , , and all entries of are constant.
The mass divergence is zero because the field is independent of and . The momentum divergence is zero because is constant, is constant, and every -velocity is zero. For total energy, the Euler flux has zero divergence; the only nonzero viscous energy flux is . Since , its derivative is zero. Thus all conservative equations hold.
The stress production is . The physical entropy law [F2], no normal velocity at either wall, and periodicity in give the boundary-flux identity after integration in . Directly, , so integrating its negative proves the equality. The integrand is strictly positive because , , and .

Dependency tree · two levels
4 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.
