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.
Risk-set likelihood and time-varying hazard-ratio check
Example
At one untied failure time , suppose the risk set is , the failing subject is , and the covariate values at that time are , , and . The partial-likelihood contribution is For a separate survival comparison, take baseline hazard on , , and fixed covariates and . Their hazard ratio is , while their event-risk ratio by time is . If instead and , their instantaneous hazard ratio is , so the between-path hazard ratio varies over time even though is fixed.
Verification
Given: Use the Cox partial likelihood, survival, and hazard-ratio definitions in [F1]–[F3], and the predictability definition in [F4]. Verify the risk-set contribution and the two hazard comparisons.
[F1] Cox proportional-hazards model and partial likelihood: for untied failures, the partial likelihood uses each event subject's exponential weight divided by the sum of exponential weights over its risk set.
[F2] Cox proportional-hazards model and partial likelihood: at times with positive baseline hazard, the fixed-value hazard ratio is .
[F3] Cox proportional-hazards model and partial likelihood: for a constant covariate value , the event survival function is .
[F4] Progressively measurable and predictable processes: deterministic Borel functions of time are predictable.
Substituting for the three risk-set members in the no-tie partial-likelihood formula of [F1], subject contributes .
For constant covariate , the survival formula [F3] with gives . At , the risks for and are and , so their ratio is , although their hazard ratio from [F2] is .
By [F4], the deterministic paths and are predictable. Substitution into the relative hazard factor of [F2] at gives , which equals at and at . Thus a fixed regression coefficient does not force the hazard ratio between changing covariate paths to be constant.
