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.
Gregory-Leibniz partial sums bracket pi with an explicit remainder bound
Example
Set
Then is an upper bound for when is even, a lower bound when is odd, and in every case
Facts & Assumptions
Given: A natural number and the partial sum .
The finite-remainder identity gives where the integral is nonnegative and at most (The Gregory-Leibniz series: pi over four equals 1-1/3+1/5-1/7+...).
Verification
Multiplying [L1] by gives .
If is even, the remainder in [L1] has negative sign, so ; if is odd, it has positive sign, so .
Direct summation gives
Hence the first certified brackets include with the weak inequalities adjacent to supplied by step 1.2.
The error bound decreases only on the scale , so the certification also records the slow convergence of these partial sums.
