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.
Pullback gradients and induced surface metrics
Statement
Assume Countable Choice. Let be an admissible orientation-preserving cell diffeomorphism and let be on . With , one has and . For a regular -dimensional parametrized face with metric , the induced area factor is and the tangential gradient of is ; its squared norm is .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: Countable Choice, an admissible orientation-preserving cell map, and a scalar field.
Admissible isoparametric curved cells: , , and the induced facet metric is the Gram matrix of the facet differential.
A C^1 diffeomorphism satisfies the change-of-variables formula for nonnegative Lebesgue measurable functions: under Countable Choice a diffeomorphism changes variables with factor .
Countable Choice is assumed exactly for [F3] (The Axiom of Countable Choice ()).
Proof
The chain rule [F2] gives . Since is invertible by admissibility, multiplication by yields .
For a regular face parametrization, the differential maps a coordinate vector to and its squared Euclidean length is . The vector is therefore the coordinate vector whose image under has the defining inner products with every tangent vector; its image is the tangential gradient. Taking its squared norm gives . The Gram determinant gives the -volume scaling factor.
The energy identity follows by substituting step 1.1 into and applying [F3] to the nonnegative measurable energy density. Since , the absolute determinant in [F3] equals .
