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 two-site spin-chain local solve reaches the exact ground state
Example
Take two spin- sites with computational basis , Pauli matrix , and finite Hamiltonian Supply the initial product state by the rank-one open-boundary TT cores for . Starting from this presentation, one completed width-two exact sweep of Finite alternating tensor optimization with effective eigenproblems returns and lowers the energy from to .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The two-site state, Hamiltonian, and width-two exact sweep just specified.
Finite matrix-product states and Hermitian Hamiltonians: a normalized finite state is a tensor array, and a finite Hamiltonian input is Hermitian.
Finite alternating tensor optimization with effective eigenproblems: each window is updated by the exact lowest eigenvector of its effective Hermitian matrix; with two sites the width-two window is the entire coefficient space.
Verification
In the displayed basis, is the diagonal matrix : the three summands contribute respectively , , and . Thus is the unique unit ground vector with energy , while has energy .
For the only two-site window, the fixed environments are identities, so the embedding and effective Hamiltonian are and . The exact solve in [F2] therefore selects . The backward pass sees the same and leaves this unique ground vector unchanged, and its exact SVD split has rank one and no discarded tail. Hence the completed sweep returns with energy .
