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.
An interval Jacobian encloses a vector mean-value matrix
Statement
Let be open and convex, let be a real box, and let be . Let be an interval Jacobian enclosure. For any , there is a point matrix such that
The rows of may come from different intermediate points; the claim does not assert one common Jacobian value.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: as in the Statement.
A map is totally differentiable on its open domain (Continuously differentiable maps, local inverses, and local diffeomorphisms), and total differentiability gives continuity (Total differentiability gives a local increment bound and therefore continuity).
The chain rule computes the derivative of a composition with an affine line (The chain rule for total derivatives: ).
A total derivative computes directional derivatives, and its matrix is the Jacobian (A total derivative computes every directional derivative, and its matrix is the Jacobian).
A real function continuous on and differentiable on satisfies the mean value theorem (Mean value theorem on a closed real interval).
Each interval-Jacobian entry contains the corresponding partial derivative at every point of (Real boxes and interval Jacobian enclosures).
Proof
Use coordinate indices , as for the Jacobian. Fix a row index and define on . For and every coordinate , both imply . Thus the product box is convex and the segment stays in . By [F1], is continuous there; by [F2] and [F3], is differentiable on with .
Apply [F4] to to obtain with , where .
For each of the finitely many rows choose the point from step 2.1 and form whose th row is . By [F5], every entry lies in , so ; the row identities in step 2.1 give . This uses only finite choice.

23 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.
