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.

All fourteen triangulations of the labelled hexagon

Example

Grouped by the split index k of For m3 and a triangulation T of the m-gon there is a unique k with 1<k<m such that {1,k} and {k,m} are both chords of T or sides, and T splits along k, the triangulations of the labelled hexagon are:

ktriangulations
2{{2,4},{2,5},{2,6}}, {{2,4},{2,6},{4,6}}, {{2,5},{2,6},{3,5}}, {{2,6},{3,5},{3,6}}, {{2,6},{3,6},{4,6}}
3{{1,3},{3,5},{3,6}}, {{1,3},{3,6},{4,6}}
4{{1,3},{1,4},{4,6}}, {{1,4},{2,4},{4,6}}
5{{1,3},{1,4},{1,5}}, {{1,3},{1,5},{3,5}}, {{1,4},{1,5},{2,4}}, {{1,5},{2,4},{2,5}}, {{1,5},{2,5},{3,5}}

Facts & Assumptions

Given: the labelled hexagon with vertices 1,,6.

[L2]

The number of triangulations of the labelled hexagon is C4=14 (Pn+2=Cn, The Catalan number Cn:=Dn).

Verification

technique · direct
1.1

Every diagonal set in the table has three pairwise non-crossing diagonals, so each row is a triangulation of the hexagon.

given
2.1

The four groups are disjoint because the split index k of [L1] is unique, and the group sizes are 5, 2, 2 and 5, so the table contains 14 triangulations altogether.

L1step 1.1
3.1

This agrees with [L2], since C4=14. The same grouped count is the recursion P2P5+P3P4+P4P3+P5P2=5+2+2+5.

L2step 2.1

Remarks

  • The two extreme groups are the fan triangulations based at the vertices 2 and 5, together with the four further triangulations on the corresponding pentagons.

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.
