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.

F(x)=x2sin⁡(1/x2) has an unbounded derivative whose Henstock–Kurzweil integral is sin⁡1

Example

Define F(0)=0 and F(x)=x2sin⁡(1/x2) for 0<x≤1. Then F is differentiable on [0,1] and

f(x)=F′(x)=2xsin⁡(1/x2)−2xcos⁡(1/x2)(x>0),f(0)=0.

F(x)=x2sin⁡(1/x2) has an unbounded derivative whose Henstock–Kurzweil integral is sin⁡1.

The derivative f of x2sin⁡(1/x2) is Henstock–Kurzweil integrable on [0,1].

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The displayed function F and its derivative candidate f.

[L1]

If a<b, F:[a,b]→R is differentiable in the domain-relative sense, including at the endpoints, and f=F′, then f is Henstock–Kurzweil integrable and ∫abf=F(b)−F(a) (Every derivative is Henstock–Kurzweil integrable and satisfies Newton–Leibniz).

[L2]

For every integer m, sin⁡(π/2+2mπ)=1, sin⁡(2mπ)=0, and cos⁡(2mπ)=1 (Quarter-turn values and shifts by pi/2 and pi, The zero sets of sine and cosine and the least positive common period 2 pi).

[L3]

If g is differentiable at x and f is differentiable at g(x), then the chain rule gives (f∘g)′(x)=f′(g(x))g′(x) (The chain rule, in one line from Carathéodory: if g is differentiable at c and f is differentiable at g(c), then f∘g is differentiable at c with (f∘g)′(c)=f′(g(c)) g′(c)).

[L5]

Sine and cosine have derivatives cos⁡ and −sin⁡ (The derivatives of sine and cosine are cosine and minus sine).

[L6]

For every real u, ∣sin⁡u∣≤1 (Parity and the Pythagorean identity for sine and cosine).

Applying [L3], [L4], and [L5] gives the displayed derivative for x>0, while [L6] gives ∣F(x)/x∣=∣xsin⁡(1/x2)∣≤x→0 and hence F′(0)=0. For every natural m≥1, at xm=1/2πm the values in [L2] give f(xm)=−2/xm, which is unbounded.

Dependency tree · two levels

35 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.
