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

SN:=k=0N(1)k2k+1.

Then 4SN is an upper bound for π when N is even, a lower bound when N is odd, and in every case

π4SN42N+3.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: A natural number N and the partial sum SN.

[L1]

The finite-remainder identity gives π4=SN+(1)N+101t2N+21+t2dt, where the integral is nonnegative and at most 1/(2N+3) (The Gregory-Leibniz series: pi over four equals 1-1/3+1/5-1/7+...).

Verification

technique · direct
1.1

Multiplying [L1] by 4 gives π4SN4/(2N+3).

L1algebra
1.2

If N is even, the remainder in [L1] has negative sign, so π4SN; if N is odd, it has positive sign, so 4SNπ.

Direct summation gives S0=1,S1=23,S2=1315,S3=76105.

Hence the first certified brackets include 83<304105π5215<4, with the weak inequalities adjacent to π supplied by step 1.2.

The error bound decreases only on the scale 1/N, so the certification also records the slow convergence of these partial sums.
