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 selected nodal ENO2 quadratic reconstructs the face to third order

Statement

Let h>0, let yj=jh, and let u∈C3([yi−1,yi+2]) with M:=sup⁡∣u′′′∣<∞. Form the nodal ENO2 value at yi+1/2 by the rule in Finite-volume MUSCL, nodal ENO2 and WENO5 reconstruction conventions. Then ∣Ui+1/2ENO2−u(yi+1/2)∣≤Mh3/16. The conclusion holds for either selected triple, so it includes the left-tie case.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: Uniform distinct nodes yj=jh, nodal values Uj=u(yj) from a C3 function, and the ENO2 selector and Newton quadratic.

[F1]

Finite-volume MUSCL, nodal ENO2 and WENO5 reconstruction conventions: ENO2 compares the absolute divided differences on (yi−1,yi,yi+1) and (yi,yi+1,yi+2), chooses the smaller (ties left), and evaluates the corresponding Newton quadratic at yi+1/2.

[F2]

Existence and uniqueness of the cardinal-polynomial interpolant: for distinct real nodes, the data have a unique interpolating polynomial of degree at most the number of nodes minus one.

[F3]

Pointwise Lagrange interpolation remainder: for three distinct nodes and u∈C3, the quadratic interpolant error at a non-node x is u′′′(ξ)(x−ya)(x−yb)(x−yc)/3! for some ξ between the nodes and x.

Proof

1.1givenF1F2algebra

For either candidate triple ya<yb<yc, let Dab=(Ub−Ua)/(yb−ya) and Dbc=(Uc−Ub)/(yc−yb). The Newton polynomial in [F1] takes values Ua and Ub at the first two nodes. At yc, its value is Ua+Dab(yc−ya)+(Dbc−Dab)(yc−yb)=Ub+Dbc(yc−yb)=Uc, using the divided-difference definition. By [F2] it is the unique quadratic interpolant to that triple.

1.2givenF3algebra

Apply [F3] to the left triple. The offsets from yi+1/2 are −3h/2,−h/2,h/2, whose product has magnitude 3h3/8; hence the error is at most M(3h3/8)/6=Mh3/16. For the right triple the offsets are −h/2,h/2,3h/2, with the same product magnitude, so it has the same bound.

2.1F1step 1.2∎

The selector in [F1] returns one of those two quadratics, including the left one at a tie. Since both candidates satisfy the bound from step 1.2, whichever is selected satisfies it.
