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.
An imaginary eigenvalue crossing with zero Lyapunov coefficient
Example
Consider the linear system The eigenvalues cross the imaginary axis transversely, but there is no isolated small cycle branch for nonzero .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The linear system in the Example and the eigenvector normalization .
Hopf spectral and multilinear normal-form data: the first Lyapunov coefficient is computed from the second and third derivatives by the displayed formula.
Verification
Its Jacobian is , with eigenvalues , so . The vector field is linear; therefore and .
By [F1], and . The nondegeneracy hypothesis of the generic Hopf theorem is therefore absent even though the eigenvalue crossing is transverse.
In polar coordinates and . If , every nonzero radius changes strictly exponentially and cannot be periodic; if , every circle is periodic, so there is no isolated branch selected by crossing.

Dependency tree · two levels
6 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.
