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.
Properties of the explicit entropy-conservative flux
Statement
The flux in Explicit entropy-conservative two-point Euler flux is well-defined for every pair in , symmetric in its two states, and consistent in the sense that . It satisfies
The flux is locally Lipschitz on .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: and two states .
Explicit entropy-conservative two-point Euler flux: with , , and , use when and otherwise use .
Strict convexity and entropy variables for the ideal-gas Euler flux: is positive definite on , , and .
The ideal-gas admissible state set is open and convex: is open and convex.
Proof
If , then and [F1] gives . If , convexity [F3] keeps the segment in , and by [F2]. Hence , so the denominator in [F1] is nonzero; also . This proves well-definedness and consistency.
Exchanging and leaves fixed and changes the signs of both and . Thus the scalar correction coefficient in [F1] changes sign while its vector factor changes sign, leaving the flux unchanged. The diagonal branch is also symmetric.
Fix a state and write , for small . The entropy compatibility in [F2] implies . Symmetric Taylor expansions therefore give and , so . Positive definiteness of implies in a sufficiently small neighborhood of .
When , dotting [F1] with cancels its denominator and gives . When , step 1.1 gives , so both sides are zero.
On that neighborhood, the correction is and tends to zero on the diagonal. Differentiating the symmetric Taylor remainders gives , , , and . The quotient rule then shows that the correction derivatives are bounded and tend to zero as ; its diagonal extension is . Away from the diagonal the denominator is nonzero by step 1.1 and the formula is smooth. Thus the flux is locally Lipschitz everywhere on .
