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.

Opposite diagonals conserve mass under a curved shear

Example

Assume Countable Choice. Map [−1,1]2 by the area-preserving shear Φ(x,y)=(x,y+x2/4). Triangulate the square once along the southwest-to-northeast diagonal and once along the other diagonal; map both meshes by the same Φ. Every source-target overlap has area 1. If the source cell values are 2 and 0, each target average is 1, source and target total mass are both 4, and all target values remain nonnegative.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: Countable Choice; the square, the shear Φ(x,y)=(x,y+x2/4), opposite-diagonal triangulations, and source values 2,0.

[F1]

Curved-domain geometry approximation errors: geometry maps carry a Jacobian and define the physical image domain.

[F2]

Intersection-volume conservative remapping: under Countable Choice, target values are exact overlap-weighted averages.

[F3]

Overlap remapping is an L2 projection, conservative and positive: assuming Countable Choice, exact overlap remapping conserves mass and preserves nonnegativity.

[F4]

A C^1 diffeomorphism satisfies the change-of-variables formula for nonnegative Lebesgue measurable functions: under Countable Choice, a C1 diffeomorphism changes variables with its positive Jacobian.

[A1]

Countable Choice is used through [F2], [F3], and [F4] (The Axiom of Countable Choice (ACω)).

Verification

1.1F1F4A1givenalgebra

The shear is a global C1 diffeomorphism with inverse (X,Y)↦(X,Y−X2/4) and derivative (10x/21) of determinant 1. Apply [F4] to each overlap to see that its physical area equals the reference overlap area. In the reference square, the two diagonals meet at the center; the two diagonals divide the square into four corner triangles, each with base 2 along a side and altitude 1 to the center, so each nonempty source-target overlap has area 1.

2.1F2F3step 1.1algebra

Each target triangle has area 2 and receives source mass 2(1)+0(1)=2, so its target average is 1. The source mass is 2⋅2+0⋅2=4, and target mass is 2(1)+2(1)=4.

3.1F2step 2.1∎

The exact remap therefore has source values (2,0), four nonempty overlaps of area 1, target cell areas 2, and target averages (1,1). This explicitly verifies the remap formula.
