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.

Amplification symbols for periodic scalar advection stencils

Statement

On an N-point periodic grid let zℓ=exp⁡(2πiℓ/N), Cℓ=Re⁡zℓ, Sℓ=Im⁡zℓ, and ν=ak/h with a>0. The Fourier vector j↦zℓj is multiplied in one step by gup=1−ν+νzℓ−1,gdown=1+ν−νzℓ,gcentered=1−iνSℓ,gLF=Cℓ−iνSℓ,gLW=1−ν2(1−Cℓ)−iνSℓ. Their squared moduli, in the same order, are 1−2ν(1−ν)(1−Cℓ),1+2ν(1+ν)(1−Cℓ),1+ν2Sℓ2,1−(1−ν2)Sℓ2,1−ν2(1−ν2)(1−Cℓ)2. The N Fourier vectors form an orthogonal basis under the periodic inner product of Uniform periodic, infinite, and Dirichlet grid conventions, and each has squared norm Nh.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: N≥2, a,h,k>0, and the periodic stencils of Periodic advection schemes and the finite-interval upwind row.

[F1]

The five one-step formulas and periodic wrap are defined in Periodic advection schemes and the finite-interval upwind row.

[F2]

The finite root-of-unity sum ∑j=0N−1exp⁡(2πi(ℓ−r)j/N) equals N if ℓ≡r(modN) and 0 otherwise (Orthogonality of the characters x↦e2πikx/N on Z/NZ).

[F3]

The displayed periodic Fourier modes form a basis of the complexified grid space (Periodic heat-stencil eigenvalues and θ amplification factor).

[F4]

For complex numbers, zˉ=Re⁡z−iIm⁡z and zzˉ=∣z∣2; conjugation is multiplicative and modulus obeys the field laws (Real and imaginary parts, complex conjugation, and modulus, Conjugation is an involutive real-field automorphism, zz‾=∣z∣2, and modulus is definite, multiplicative, and subadditive).

[F5]

The periodic grid inner product and norm are ⟨p,q⟩2,h=h∑jpjqj‾ and ∥p∥2,h2=h∑j∣pj∣2 (Uniform periodic, infinite, and Dirichlet grid conventions).

Proof

1.1F1F4algebra

Write ϕj=zℓj. Then ϕj+1=zℓϕj, ϕj−1=zℓ−1ϕj, and zℓ−1=zˉℓ. Substitution into each update in [F1] gives, respectively, 1−ν+νzℓ−1,1+ν−νzℓ,1−ν2(zℓ−zℓ−1),zℓ+zℓ−12−ν2(zℓ−zℓ−1),1−ν2(zℓ−zℓ−1)+ν22(zℓ+zℓ−1−2). Since zℓ−1=Cℓ−iSℓ, these are the displayed factors.

2.1F4step 1.1algebra

The identity ∣zℓ∣=1 gives Cℓ2+Sℓ2=1. Multiplying each factor in step 1.1 by its conjugate and simplifying with this identity gives the five displayed squared-modulus formulas.

3.1F2F3F5step 1.1∎

By [F2] the distinct Fourier modes are mutually orthogonal; by [F3] they form a basis. By [F5], each has squared norm Nh, so the normalized modes are an orthonormal basis. Every update is diagonal in this basis with the factors from step 1.1, which therefore describe the full periodic updates.
