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.
Spherical-pendulum monodromy obstructs global action–angle coordinates
Example
This item assumes , namely countable choice. In the propagated dependency chain, that assumption is required through Period-lattice monodromy obstructs global action–angle coordinates; after those interfaces are fixed, the remaining local or finite argument makes no additional countable-family choice.
Identify covectors and tangent vectors on the unit sphere by its round metric. The spherical pendulum has integral map
The regular torus fibration has nontrivial monodromy around the focus–focus value and therefore has no global action–angle chart on that punctured regular region.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: , the source's orientation of the loop and its homology basis , where is an orbit of the circle action generated by .
is countable choice and is required here through Period-lattice monodromy obstructs global action–angle coordinates; after those supplied interfaces are fixed, the remaining local or finite calculation makes no additional countable-family choice.
Nonidentity period-lattice monodromy obstructs global action–angle coordinates. Period-lattice monodromy obstructs global action–angle coordinates.
Martynchuk–Broer–Efstathiou, Theorem 2.7 and §3.1, prove that crossing the unique focus–focus critical energy changes the energy-level Chern number by and compute the associated gluing matrices.
Verification
Proof technique: direct, with the advanced index computation imported from the cited source.
The Hamiltonian flow of is the axial circle action, so its orbit cycle is unchanged by transport around the source's positively oriented loop enclosing .
By [F2], the two energy-level pieces used to cross the critical energy have Chern numbers . The source's solid-torus gluing sends the basis by ; hence its complete calculation gives in the basis . This step invokes, rather than reproves, the source's Takens index theorem and gluing argument.
The matrix is not the identity, so [F1] rules out a single global action–angle chart on the regular torus bundle around the puncture. Reversing the loop or changing the integral basis can invert or conjugate the matrix but cannot make its monodromy trivial.

Dependency tree · two levels
8 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.
