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.
AdaGrad accumulated Gram matrices and both scales are positive semidefinite
Statement
For the AdaGrad inputs, at each round the accumulated matrix , with , is a finite real symmetric positive-semidefinite matrix. More precisely, for every , Here the coordinate and matrix-entry labels are one-based: and in the underlying zero-based conventions. Empty sums have value zero. Therefore both the full-matrix scale and the diagonal scale exist and are finite real symmetric positive-semidefinite matrices. Singular and zero accumulated matrices are allowed.

Facts & Assumptions
Given: Any finite gradient history admitted by AdaGrad, including . Coordinate and matrix-entry subscripts use the one-based relabeling specified in the Statement.

Rectangular matrix multiplication and the identity matrix , including zero-sized shapes The transpose of a matrix: finite matrix multiplication is given by sums of entrywise products, and transposition interchanges the two indices.
Sign rules for products and monotonicity of multiplication: a square of a real number is nonnegative, by the positive, negative, and zero cases; a finite sum of such squares is nonnegative.
A positive-semidefinite matrix has a unique positive-semidefinite square root: every real symmetric positive-semidefinite matrix has a unique real symmetric positive-semidefinite square root.
Square roots exist: a unique with ; the positives are : every nonnegative real number has a unique nonnegative real square root.
Proof
Write for the th coordinate of . By [F1, F2], . These are finite real sums, and commutativity of real multiplication gives . Thus is finite and symmetric, also when .
For arbitrary , expand by [F2] and interchange the finite sum over with the two coordinate sums. For each , the coordinate sums factor as . Hence by [F3], including the empty sum when . Taking in step 1.1 also gives .
Steps 1.1 and 2.1 verify every input hypothesis of [F4], which gives the unique full-matrix scale as a finite real symmetric positive-semidefinite matrix. By [F5], each exists and is a nonnegative finite real. The diagonal matrix is symmetric, and by [F2, F3]. Thus the diagonal scale has the same required properties, with no positive-definiteness assumption.
