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.

Facts & Assumptions
Given: A nonconstant autonomous periodic orbit, the phase residual of The phase-bordered periodic-orbit BVP residual, its monodromy , and the affine phase covector .
The phase-bordered residual is , with (The phase-bordered periodic-orbit BVP residual).
The tangent vector is a right eigenvector of for eigenvalue (An autonomous periodic orbit has a neutral Floquet multiplier).
For a simple eigenvalue, compatible left and right eigenvectors pair nontrivially and can be normalized by (For a simple eigenvalue, left and right eigenvectors pair nontrivially and may be normalized by , Compatible left and right eigenvectors for a simple eigenvalue).
Eigenvalues are precisely the roots of the characteristic polynomial (For every finite-dimensional space, is exactly the set of roots in of , For , the characteristic polynomial is when , with for the unique matrix). Here algebraic multiplicity means the multiplicity of that root; over the characteristic polynomial factors into linear factors counted with multiplicity (A complex polynomial of degree has exactly roots counted with multiplicity) and a finite-dimensional operator has Jordan form (Jordan form over the base field exists exactly when the characteristic polynomial splits).
The monodromy is the state derivative of the flow (Local periodic-orbit, Poincare-return, and Floquet data). For the field in [F1], the finite-regularity maximal-flow theorem supplies a flow with time derivative (C¹ Euclidean maximal flows, variational dependence and the finite C² upgrade).
The derivative of a composition is the composition of its derivatives (The chain rule for total derivatives: ).
For linear maps between finite-dimensional spaces of equal dimension, injectivity is equivalent to surjectivity (Rank-nullity: ).
Proof
By [F1] and [F5], differentiating in gives , differentiating in gives , and differentiating the phase row gives . This is the displayed matrix by [F6].
Suppose is algebraically simple. Then [F4] implies that the complex eigenspace for eigenvalue is one-dimensional. By [F2] its spanning eigenvector is real, so the real kernel is and rank-nullity gives . Choose a real basis of . The real linear forms are independent: if a linear combination vanishes for every , then the row is zero, so and basis independence forces every coefficient to vanish. Rank-nullity therefore gives a nonzero real with for every . Thus . It is a compatible left eigenvector with the real right eigenvector , so [F3], applied over , gives . This pairing is real; normalize , so is real, , and . For and , one has , , and . Hence is the projection onto , preserves , and maps into . Its restriction to is injective: a kernel vector there would be an eigenvector independent of , contrary to simplicity. Since is finite dimensional, [F7] makes the restriction invertible. For , left multiplication of the first row by gives . Write with ; applying to the first row and using its commutation with gives , and the phase row gives . Thus nonzero gives a unique solution for every right-hand side, so is invertible. Moreover, , , and . By the triangle inequality and , these bounds yield the stated estimate.
If , then , so is singular. Now suppose the algebraic multiplicity of exceeds one. If the complex eigenspace has dimension at least two, its real kernel also has dimension at least two: for the real matrix , its complex kernel consists exactly of with and in the real kernel. Choose a real independent of . If the preceding argument applies; otherwise is nonzero, lies in , and satisfies , so . If instead the eigenspace is one-dimensional, Jordan form [F4] supplies a generalized vector which, after rescaling, satisfies over . Since and are real, is a real generalized vector satisfying the same equation; replace by this real vector. If , ; if not, put . Then and , so . In every nonsimple case is singular.
