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 rational spin-1/2 spectral R-matrix satisfies Yang-Baxter
Statement
Let , , , and be as in The rational spin-1/2 spectral R-matrix. For arbitrary , set , , and . In the un-checked operators satisfy
The checked operators also satisfy the braid-form spectral identity
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The fixed space and the endomorphisms defined in The rational spin-1/2 spectral R-matrix, together with arbitrary .
The rational spin-1/2 spectral R-matrix: , , and act on the standard tensor basis by the corresponding transpositions; and , .
Proof
Write , , and . On each basis tensor , the products , , and all give ; the products , , and all give ; and and both give . Also and both give , while . Since the eight elementary tensors form a basis, these are equalities of endomorphisms.
Expand the left side of the un-checked identity as . Expand the right side as . By step 1.1, put and ; then the left quadratic term is , and the right quadratic term is . The scalar, linear, and cubic terms agree as well, using and . This proves the un-checked identity.
The checked left side expands to . The checked right side expands to . These expressions agree by step 1.1 and , proving the checked identity.
Diagram
Read each arrow label as a composite of endomorphisms, with the rightmost factor applied first. The two arrows have the same source and target; this is a notation diagram for the checked identity above, not part of its proof.

Dependency tree · two levels
3 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.
