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 posterior median need not be unique

Example

Let Π=12δ0+12δ1. Every m∈[0,1] is a posterior median and has the same absolute posterior risk, 1/2.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: Π({0})=Π({1})=1/2 and there is no other posterior mass.

[F1]

A posterior median has at least half the mass on each closed side. Posterior median

[F2]

Every posterior median minimizes absolute posterior risk when the first absolute moment is finite. Every posterior median minimizes absolute risk when the first absolute moment is finite

Verification

Given: The hypotheses in the Example and Facts & Assumptions.

1.1givenF1

For m∈[0,1], Π((−∞,m])≥1/2 and Π([m,∞))≥1/2, so [F1] makes every such m a median.

2.1givenF2algebra∎

For m∈[0,1], ρ(m)=12∣m∣+12∣1−m∣=12. For a<0, ρ(a)=12(−a)+12(1−a)=12−a>12; for a>1, ρ(a)=12a+12(a−1)=a−12>12. Thus precisely the interval [0,1] minimizes risk, in agreement with [F2].

Dependency tree · two levels

7 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.
