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.

A Neumann defect bounds the inverse norm

Statement

Let E∈Cn×n, n≥1, and let 0≤q<1 satisfy ∥E∥2≤q. Then I−E is invertible and

∥(I−E)−1∥2≤11−q.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: E,q,n as in the statement.

[F1]

If ∥X∥2<1, then I+X is invertible (A finite matrix within unit distance of the identity is invertible).

[F3]

The operator norm is induced by the Euclidean vector norm (The operator norm is zero on the zero domain and otherwise is max_{||v||=1} ||Tv||).

Proof

1.1givenF1

Since ∥−E∥2=∥E∥2≤q<1, [F1] gives that T=(I−E)−1 exists.

Put SN=∑k=0NEk. By induction and [F2], ∥Ek∥2≤qk, so ∥SN∥2≤∑k=0Nqk=(1−qN+1)/(1−q) by [F3]. The finite identity (I−E)SN=I−EN+1, multiplied on the left by T, gives SN=T−TEN+1 and hence T=SN+TEN+1. By the triangle inequality from [F3] and submultiplicativity [F2], (1−qN+1)∥T∥2≤∥SN∥2≤(1−qN+1)/(1−q). Since qN+1<1, division gives ∥T∥2≤(1−q)−1. This proves the inverse norm bound without taking a limit of matrices.

6 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.
