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 consistent underdetermined system has an affine two-parameter solution set
Example
Over , the system has the affine two-parameter solution set
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The displayed real system.
RREF parametrises solutions by the nonpivot variables (Reduced row echelon form detects consistency and parametrises every solution by the nonpivot variables).
A nonempty solution set is a particular solution plus the nullspace (If has one solution , then its full solution set is the affine subspace ).
The real numbers form a field (The reals form a field).
Verification
Subtracting twice the first row from the second leaves one nonzero row . Put and ; then the pivot variable is .
This is the displayed affine form. The base point maps to , while each direction maps to , so direct multiplication verifies that is particular and the two direction vectors lie in the nullspace, as [L2] requires.
