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.
Known-blank normal limits at five-percent error and ten-percent CV
Example
Assume AC and . In the known-blank model , take and . Then The NIST SP 958 table reports the corresponding known-blank values rounded to , , and . These are conditional on the equal-known-variance normal law and the stated error and CV targets.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: AC; ; the known-blank experiment and definitions in Exact limits in the known-blank equal-variance normal model and Critical, detection, and quantification levels, with and .
AC is assumed by the normal-limit theorem and the standard normal quantile lemma. The Axiom of Choice Exact limits in the known-blank equal-variance normal model The standard normal CDF has unique symmetric quantiles
Under the known-blank equal-variance normal model, , , and . Exact limits in the known-blank equal-variance normal model
The standard normal -quantile is the unique with , and . The standard normal CDF has unique symmetric quantiles
Verification
Given: AC; ; ; ; the known-blank model; and the suppliers [F1]–[F2].
Since , [A1] and [F1] give and , with the unique quantile from [F2].
By [F1], the stated CV criterion gives . Together with step 1.1, this gives all three exact limits.
Source notes
The exact expressions follow from [F1]. The NIST table reports the known-blank row as , , and times the blank standard deviation for the same targets; those table entries are rounded values, not exact replacements for .
