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.

x sin(1/x) tends to zero despite its oscillation

Example

$\lim_{x\to0}x\sin(1/x)=0,$ where the function is defined at $0$ by the displayed limit.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: A nonzero real $x$ approaching $0$ .

[L1]

$|\sin u|\le1$ for every real $u$ (Parity and the Pythagorean identity for sine and cosine).

[L2]

The squeeze theorem for function limits holds (If $f \le g \le h$ near $c$ and $f$ and $h$ have the same limit at $c$ , then so does $g$ ).

Verification

technique · direct

1.1

From [L1], $|x\sin(1/x)|\le|x|$ for every $x\ne0$ .

L1algebra

2.1

Since both $-|x|$ and $|x|$ tend to $0$ , squeeze gives $x\sin(1/x)\to0$ .
