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.
Linear-time evaluation from a full cube table
Statement
For every field , , full table , and , one can compute in field operations and storage, measured in field elements with indexed array access.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The objects and hypotheses in the statement above.
The unique extension is the finite weighted sum in the Boolean interpolation formula (Boolean-cube interpolation).
Proof
Start with the one-entry array . At stage , replace each entry by entries and . After stage each entry is the product of the appropriate first factors, directly by this recurrence. This remains valid for zero or unit coordinates.
After stage , return . The weights equal the interpolation basis evaluated at , so this is . Zero tables or zero weights need no separate treatment.
The weight construction costs operations, and the final weighted sum costs . Holding the table, two successive weight arrays and uses storage. For , return the sole table entry; for , the construction returns . The input still has values.

Dependency tree · two levels
2 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.
