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.
One shared face-average degree of freedom
Example
Let be an interior facet of a finite matching mesh and let be the global CR basis function indexed by . It has face mean one on and zero on every other facet. It is supported only on the two cells incident to .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: A finite matching mesh, an interior facet , and the local and global Crouzeix–Raviart bases of Face averages are unisolvent for the local Crouzeix–Raviart element and Interior face means form the global Crouzeix–Raviart degrees of freedom.
On a cell , the face dual polynomial is and its mean is one on and zero on all other cell facets. (Face averages are unisolvent for the local Crouzeix–Raviart element)
The global face basis function is this polynomial on cells incident to and zero elsewhere. (Interior face means form the global Crouzeix–Raviart degrees of freedom)
Verification
On either cell incident to , [F1] gives face mean one on and zero on that cell's other facets.
On every other cell the function is zero by [F2]. Thus the two traces have matching mean on , and all other interior and boundary face means are zero. This is exactly the homogeneous CR condition, and the only nonzero global degree of freedom is the mean on .
