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 right triangle has Jordan content
Example
The triangle is Jordan measurable and has content .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: Uniform -by- grids with .
Jordan content equals the indicator integral (A bounded set is Jordan measurable iff its indicator is Riemann integrable, and the integral is its Jordan content).
Each of the three edges is a continuous graph, after exchanging coordinates for the vertical edge, and their finite union has content zero (The graph of a continuous function on a closed nondegenerate rectangle in has content zero in , A bounded set in is Jordan measurable iff its boundary is null, equivalently of content zero).
Verification
Index the grid cells by . A cell is contained in when , while it meets when . Thus the lower staircase has cells and the upper staircase has cells.
Induction gives . Hence the lower area is , the upper area is , and their gap is . Both areas tend to .
Steps 1.1 and 1.2 give inscribed and covering grid approximations converging to , so the inner and outer contents agree at . Alternatively, [L2] gives Jordan measurability from the boundary criterion. In either route, [L1] identifies the common value with the indicator integral.
