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 Poincare derivative has precisely the non-phase monodromy multipliers

Statement

Let γ be a nonconstant periodic orbit of least period T, let x∗=γ(0), and let M=DxϕT(x∗). Suppose the phase multiplier 1 is algebraically simple and ψ(x∗)=0 with c⊤f(x∗)≠0, where c=Dψ(x∗). Then the eigenvalues of the derivative of the local Poincare return map on the section Σ={x:ψ(x)=0}, counted with algebraic multiplicity, are exactly the Floquet multipliers of M other than the single phase multiplier 1.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: A C2 autonomous field, a periodic solution, its flow and monodromy, and a transverse affine phase section.

[F1]

The section is a codimension-one surface transverse to f(x∗), and its local return map is the Poincare map (Local periodic-orbit, Poincare-return, and Floquet data).

[F2]

The phase-bordered residual is G(x,T)=(ϕT(x)−x,ψ(x)) (The phase-bordered periodic-orbit BVP residual).

[F3]

The derivative of the flow at time T sends f(x∗) to itself (An autonomous periodic orbit has a neutral Floquet multiplier).

[F4]

The parametrized implicit function theorem solves a C1 scalar equation locally when its derivative in the solved variable is nonzero (The parametrized implicit function theorem with Ck regularity).

Proof

Define Ψ(t,x)=ψ(ϕt(x)). At (T,x∗), Ψ(T,x∗)=0 and ∂tΨ(T,x∗)=c⊤f(x∗)≠0. By [F4], there is a local return-time function τ(x) on the section with τ(x∗)=T and Ψ(τ(x),x)=0. Differentiating this identity at x∗ in a tangent direction v∈S:=ker⁡c⊤ gives Dτ(x∗)v=−c⊤Mv/(c⊤f(x∗)).

The local return map is P(x)=ϕτ(x)(x). The chain rule and step 1.1 give, for v∈S, DP(x∗)v=Mv−f(x∗)c⊤Mvc⊤f(x∗)=ΠMv,Π=I−f(x∗)c⊤c⊤f(x∗). The map Π identifies the quotient Cd/span⁡{f(x∗)} with S: it kills the phase direction and is the identity on S. Since Mf(x∗)=f(x∗) by [F3], it induces a linear map on this quotient, and DP(x∗) is its conjugate under that identification.

3.1F3step 2.1givenalgebra∎

In a basis whose first vector is f(x∗), the matrix of M is block upper triangular with first diagonal block 1 and remaining block the induced quotient map. Its characteristic polynomial is therefore (λ−1) times that of the quotient map. The eigenvalue 1 is simple by hypothesis, so the quotient eigenvalues, with multiplicity, are exactly all the remaining eigenvalues of M. Step 2.1 identifies these with the Poincare derivative eigenvalues.
