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.
Dense Gaussian Huber covariance model
Example
Let , , , Take independent observations with the Gaussian Huber law from Gaussian Huber contamination model for covariance estimation.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The matrix , , , and the point-mass contaminant in the Example.
Gaussian Huber contamination model for covariance estimation defines the mixture for .
Bounded-spectrum covariance class defines by positive semidefiniteness and the operator-norm bound.
The Gaussian Huber covariance mixture is a probability law proves the displayed mixture is a probability law.
Real spectral theorem: a self-adjoint endomorphism of a finite-dimensional real inner product space has an orthonormal eigenbasis: the eigenvalues of a real symmetric matrix determine its positive semidefiniteness and operator norm.
The Dirac set function at a point and A Dirac set function is a probability measure: a point mass is a probability measure on the Borel space.
Verification
The eigenvalues of are and , so is positive definite and by [F4]. Thus .
The Dirac law is a probability measure by [F5], and . By [F1] and [F3], is a well-defined Huber sampling law. The target remains the clean Gaussian covariance , not the covariance of the mixture.
