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 euclidean metric and its musical maps

Example

On Euclidean $R^{n}$ , $v^{♭} = \sum_{i} v^{i} d x^{i}$ , $α^{♯} = \sum_{i} α_{i} \partial_{i}$ , and $grad f = \sum_{i} (\partial_{i} f) \partial_{i}$ .

Facts & Assumptions

Given: $g = \sum_{i} d x^{i} \otimes d x^{i}$ , $v = \sum_{i} v^{i} \partial_{i}$ , and $α = \sum_{i} α_{i} d x^{i}$ .

[F1]

Coordinate criterion for a riemannian metric: A tensor $g = \sum_{i, j} g_{i j} d x^{i} \otimes d x^{j}$ is Riemannian exactly when its coordinate matrix $G = (g_{i j})$ has smooth entries and is symmetric positive definite. Under $J = \partial x / \partial y$ it transforms by $G_{y} = J^{T} G_{x} J$ .

[F2]

The musical maps are smooth inverse bundle isomorphisms: $♭ : T M \to T^{*} M$ and $♯ : T^{*} M \to T M$ are smooth inverse bundle isomorphisms.

[F3]

The gradient is characterized by inner products: The gradient is the unique smooth vector field $Y$ satisfying $g (Y, X) = X f$ for every smooth vector field $X$ .

[F4]

Musical isomorphisms: The musical maps are defined by $v^{♭} = g (v, \cdot)$ and by $g (α^{♯}, w) = α (w)$ for every tangent vector $w$ .

1.1

The matrix of $g$ is $I_{n}$ , which is smooth, symmetric, and has $v^{T} I_{n} v = \sum_{i} (v^{i})^{2} > 0$ for $v \neq 0$ . For every basis vector $\partial_{j}$ , F4 gives $v^{♭} (\partial_{j}) = g (v, \partial_{j}) = v^{j}$ , hence $v^{♭} = \sum_{i} v^{i} d x^{i}$ . If $α^{♯} = \sum_{i} w^{i} \partial_{i}$ , then F4 gives $w^{j} = g (α^{♯}, \partial_{j}) = α (\partial_{j}) = α_{j}$ , hence $α^{♯} = \sum_{i} α_{i} \partial_{i}$ . Substitution in either order returns the original coefficients, as also required by F2.

2.1

Since $d f = \sum_{i} (\partial_{i} f) d x^{i}$ , the inner-product characterization gives $grad f = (d f)^{♯} = \sum_{i} (\partial_{i} f) \partial_{i}$ . In particular $f (x) = \frac{1}{2} \sum_{i} (x^{i})^{2}$ has $d f = \sum_{i} x^{i} d x^{i}$ and $grad f = \sum_{i} x^{i} \partial_{i}$ .
