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.

CIR Lamperti equation and unique positive implicit root

Statement

Let κ,θ,σ>0 satisfy the Feller condition 2κθ≥σ2, and put a=4κθ−σ28. For a positive local strong solution of the CIR SDE dXt=κ(θ−Xt)dt+σXt dWt on U=(0,∞), the Lamperti variable Zt=Xt satisfies dZt=(aZt−κ2Zt)dt+σ2dWt up to every compact exit time. Moreover, for every h>0, z≥0, and ΔW∈R, the drift-implicit step z+=z+h(az+−κ2z+)+σ2ΔW has exactly one positive root. It is the value defined by Positive Lamperti drift-implicit scheme for the CIR process. The boundary input z=0 is included for the numerical root statement; the CIR solution theorem below uses X0>0.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: AC; positive parameters satisfying the Feller condition; a positive local CIR solution; and a positive step h.

Every nonnegative real number has a unique nonnegative square root, and squaring is strictly increasing on nonnegative reals. Square roots exist: a unique a≥0 with (a)2=a; the positives are {x2:x≠0}

[F5]

For 0<ε<R, a C2 function g on (0,∞) has a global C2 extension agreeing with it on [ε,R]: choose a smooth cutoff χ with support in [ε/2,2R]⊂(0,∞) and equal to 1 on [ε,R], and set g~=χg on (0,∞) and 0 on (−∞,0]. Such a cutoff is given by χ(x)=η((x−ε/2)/(ε/2))η((2R−x)/R), where ρ(u)=e−1/u for u>0, ρ(u)=0 for u≤0, and η(u)=ρ(u)/(ρ(u)+ρ(1−u)). The stopped state remains in [ε,R], so the global Itô formula for g~ uses exactly g,g′,g′′ there.

For each n let Dn={1/n<X0<n}∈F0, and let τn be the first exit from [1/n,n]. The events Dn increase to a probability-one event because X0>0 is finite. Use [F5] to extend f(x)=x from that interval to a global C2 function equal to zero off its positive support, then apply [F1] to the stopped process Xτn. On Dn its state stays in [1/n,n], so the extended function and its derivatives agree with f, f′(x)=1/(2x) and f′′(x)=−1/(4x3/2) by [F4]. The resulting drift is κ(θ−Xt)2Xt−σ2Xt8Xt3/2=4κθ−σ28Zt−κ2Zt=aZt−κ2Zt and the diffusion is σ/2. The countable compact exhaustion proves the identity up to every compact exit and hence on the local solution's lifetime.

The Feller inequality implies 4κθ−σ2≥σ2>0, so a>0. Thus for the numerical step A=1+κh/2>0 and 4Aah>0.

Multiplying the drift-implicit equation by z+ and collecting terms gives Az+2−cz+−ah=0, with c=z+σΔW/2. Its discriminant is c2+4Aah>c2, so [F3] gives a square root strictly larger than ∣c∣. The quadratic formula gives the positive root z+=(c+c2+4Aah)/(2A); the other root has negative numerator c−c2+4Aah<0 and positive denominator, hence is negative.

Every positive solution must be one of those two quadratic roots, and only the first is positive. Substitution verifies the displayed positive root in the original equation, so it is the unique admissible step, including when z=0. AC is exactly [A1].
