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.
Non-strided, subgroup, and coset pooling on p4 features
Example
Let be the p4 group and let be its four-element rotation subgroup. For a scalar group feature map , max pooling with and no subsampling remains -equivariant. Restricting to retains only -equivariance. Left-coset pooling has one value for each translation position: , so the four orientation indices are pooled while the result remains equivariant on . In the separate finite case , has one element and the pooled value is invariant.

Facts & Assumptions
Given: The p4 group, its rotation subgroup, and the pooling operators in the Example. Verify their equivariance and the quotient indexing.
Pointwise nonlinearities, neighborhood pooling, subgroup sampling, and coset pooling: Non-strided pooling is , subgroup sampling is restriction, and left-coset pooling is .
The p4 and p4m square-lattice symmetry groups: p4 elements are pairs with product .
Group cross-correlation and compatible layers are equivariant: Non-strided pooling commutes with the left action, subgroup restriction preserves the subgroup action, and finite coset pooling is equivariant on the coset set.
Subgroup: A subgroup contains the identity and is closed under the group operation and inverses.
Verification
The set is finite and nonempty, so the non-strided max pool is defined; [F3] gives for every .
The p4 multiplication in [F2] gives , , and , so [F4] confirms . For , , and restricting to equals applying the left -action to . The theorem therefore retains exactly the subgroup equivariance claimed after restriction.
By the p4 pair product in [F2], , so each left coset fixes and includes all four rotations.
The coset-pooling theorem [F3] makes equivariant on . If is finite, there is one coset, and the induced left action on this singleton is the identity, so the pooled value is invariant.

Dependency tree · two levels
16 results within two dependency steps of this one, each drawn at its shortest distance from it. An arrow runs from a result to what uses it, so the chart reads left to right and ends at this result, which carries a heavier outline. Every node is a link to that result.
