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.
A finite nuisance-score projection
Example
Let be the coordinate functions on , with uniform and counting measure as a common dominator. For , define Take as the scalar parameter of interest and as nuisance. At designate the straight one-sided paths as allowed paths, with those having designated as nuisance paths. Then the interest score is , the nuisance tangent space is , and the full tangent space is . The efficient score is , the efficient information is , and the canonical gradient for is .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The four-point sample space, uniform law , and the displayed parameterized family.
Efficient score and efficient information: and in the scalar case.
Pathwise differentiability and parameter influence curves: one-sided DQM paths define tangent scores, their closed linear span is the tangent space, and the canonical gradient is the unique representer in that space.
Score and Fisher information: in a dominated differentiable parametric submodel, score coordinates are derivatives of the log density.
Efficient score gives the canonical gradient: under Axiom of Choice and Countable Choice, if the full score space is the interest-score plus nuisance-tangent sum, the target derivative along score is , and is nonsingular, then is the canonical gradient.
Probability measures and probability spaces: a probability measure has total mass one.
Expectation of a nonnegative or integrable random variable: expectations of integrable functions are their integrals against the law.
The Axiom of Choice: the general score-density convention assumes the Axiom of Choice.
The Axiom of Countable Choice (): Countable Choice is assumed by the Hilbert projection and canonical-gradient results used here.
Verification
Given: , , , and the displayed model.
For each parameter in the stated domain, , so each mass is positive. Their sum is one because and the four constant terms sum to four. Thus the family consists of probability laws by [F5].
Finite averaging, using [F6], gives , , and . Thus is bounded and centered. Along the likelihood ratio is , which is nonnegative and integrates to one for sufficiently small . The square-root identity gives an remainder bounded by , so the path is DQM with score by [F2]. Direct differentiation of the log density gives interest score and nuisance score by [F3]. Thus the designated nuisance scores span , which is closed since , and all designated scores span , which is closed because .
Since and , is the orthogonal projection of onto . Hence and by [F1].
Along each direction , the target parameter is , so its right derivative is . Step 1.2 gives the full score-space decomposition ; step 2.1 gives nonsingular . The finite densities are explicit, and the theorem's stated axiom inputs are Axiom of Choice [A1] and Countable Choice [A2]. Therefore the hypotheses of [F4] apply, and the canonical gradient is .
