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 vanishing density prevents a uniform linear spatial inverse bound

Example

Let F(x)=0 for x≤0, F(x)=x2 for 0≤x≤1, and F(x)=1 for x≥1. Its density f(x)=2x on (0,1) has no positive lower bound near zero. At target u=0, the endpoint inverse is Q(0):=0 by convention; for each 0<ε≤1, the point x^=ε has CDF residual ε but spatial error ε.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The CDF and points in the Example.

[F1]

A nonnegative real ε has a unique nonnegative square root whose square equals ε. Square roots exist: a unique a≥0 with (a)2=a; the positives are {x2:x≠0}

[F2]

For u∈(0,1), a CDF residual at most ε yields the spatial bound ∣x^−Q(u)∣≤ε/m if both points lie in the bracket, F(y)−F(x)=∫xyf(t) dt there, and f≥m>0 almost everywhere. This is a sufficient condition for a linear bound. Certified bisection controls CDF residual, spatial error, and distribution error

Verification

1.1givenF1algebra

For 0<ε≤1, [F1] gives x^=ε≥0 and x^2=ε>0, so x^>0. If x^>1, then x^2>1, contradicting ε≤1; hence x^∈[0,1] and F(x^)=x^2=ε. Under the stated endpoint convention, the target is 0, so the residual is ε while the spatial error is ε.

2.1F1F2step 1.1algebra∎

The ratio ε/ε=1/ε is unbounded as ε↓0: for any M>0, take 0<ε<min⁡(1,1/(M+1)2), so [F1] gives ε<1/(M+1) by comparing nonnegative squares, and the ratio exceeds M. Thus no constant C independent of ε gives ∣x^−Q(0)∣≤Cε for these points; their nonlinear error is exactly ε. The density f(x)=2x has essential infimum 0 on every [0,h] with 0<h≤1, so the sufficient positive-density condition in [F2] fails near zero. The endpoint computation uses the declared convention Q(0)=0, independently of [F2]'s interior-target theorem.
