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.

The residue of e^z/z^3 from the pole-derivative formula

Example

At 0, the function ez/z3 has residue 1/2.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The function f(z)=ez/z3.

[L1]

For a pole of order m, the residue is 1(m1)! times the (m1)st derivative of (za)mf(z) at the pole (Residue formula for a pole of order m).

[L2]

The complex exponential is entire and equals its own derivative, so all derivatives of ez are again ez (The complex exponential is entire and its complex derivative is itself).

Verification

technique · direct
1.1

At 0, the factor z3f(z) is ez, so f has a pole of order 3 there.

2.1

Applying [L1] with m=3 gives Res ⁣(ezz3,0)=12!d2dz2(ez)z=0.

step 1.1L1
3.1

By [L2], the second derivative of ez is still ez, so the right-hand side of step 2.1 is 12e0=12.

Dependency tree · two levels

13 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.
