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 random pilot coefficient remains conditionally unbiased

Example

Let the production draws be IID uniform on [0,1], take f(x)=x2, h(x)=x, and θ=1/2. From an independent pilot draw V∼Unif⁡[0,1], set the random coefficient β^=2V. The control estimator remains conditionally unbiased given the pilot.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The pilot variable V is independent of all production draws and β^=2V has finite first moment.

[F1]

An independent pilot coefficient preserves conditional unbiasedness: An integrable pilot-measurable coefficient independent of the production sample gives conditional expectation EPf.

[F2]

Control-variate estimators: For a fixed scalar coefficient b, the estimator is fˉ−b(hˉ−θ).

Verification

Given: The stated production and pilot laws.

1.1givenalgebra

Production integration gives EPf=∫01x2dx=1/3 and EPh=∫01x dx=1/2=θ; also E∣β^∣=E[2V]=1<∞.

2.1F1F2givenstep 1.1algebra∎

Set P=σ(V). The independent pilot makes P independent of the sigma-algebra of the entire production sample, and β^=2V is P-measurable and integrable by step 1.1. The functions f,h are bounded and hence integrable. The random-coefficient estimator defined in [F1] is fˉ−2V(hˉ−1/2), extending the fixed-coefficient expression in [F2]. Therefore [F1] gives E[μ^β^∣P]=1/3 almost surely.
