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-dimensional SPD quadratic gives the same FR and linear-CG trace

Example

Take A=diag⁡(1,2), b=(1,1), and f(x)=12xTAx−bTx,x0=(0,0). Use exact-SPD-quadratic mode with outer budget K≥2 and c1=1/10, c2=1/4. An exact-line-search FR run reaches the solution in two steps, with the same directions and steps as linear CG.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The quadratic, start point, and exact-line-search conditions in the Example.

[F1]

FR and unrestarted PR+ match linear CG on SPD quadratics: on a real SPD quadratic in exact arithmetic, FR exact-line-search iterates, residuals and directions equal linear CG through the zero-residual exit.

[F2]

The conjugate-gradient recurrence: αk=(rkTrk)/(pkTApk), rk+1=rk−αkApk, βk=(rk+1Trk+1)/(rkTrk), and pk+1=rk+1+βkpk.

Verification

Given: A=diag⁡(1,2), b=(1,1), and x0=(0,0).

1.1givenF2algebra

The initial residual and gradient are r0=(1,1) and g0=−r0=(−1,−1), so d0=(1,1). By [F2], α0=(r0Tr0)/(d0TAd0)=2/3, giving x1=(2/3,2/3) and r1=(1/3,−1/3).

The next coefficient is β0=(r1Tr1)/(r0Tr0)=(2/9)/2=1/9, hence d1=r1+β0d0=(4/9,−2/9). Also d1TAd1=8/27, so α1=(2/9)/(8/27)=3/4.

Therefore x2=x1+α1d1=(1,1/2) and r2=b−Ax2=0. By [F1], the exact-line-search FR run has these same directions, step lengths, and terminal point.

Dependency tree · two levels

24 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.
