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.
Second moment of the signed sine-window phase kernel
Statement
Let , , , and let be the least power of two at least . For any , prepare Finite sine-window phase state, apply the controlled phases and the negative-sign Fourier transform, then decode to signed . With probability , put . Then
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The sine-window circuit and OP5 parameter range.
Exact binary QFT circuit correctness: the negative-sign Fourier transform has basis amplitudes , so the measured amplitude is the finite Fourier sum of the prepared coefficients.
Finite geometric sum for phase-estimation amplitudes: finite exponential sums equal their geometric-series quotient when the ratio is not one; the coincident-ratio case is their continuous finite-sum limit.
Sine chord and linear bounds: for .
Sine and cosine are -Lipschitz on : cosine changes by at most the change in its real argument.
Sine chord and linear bounds: for .
Proof
Put and . Expanding sine into its two exponentials and summing the two geometric series from [F2] gives the amplitude At a removable zero this formula means its continuous limit. By [F1], and .
For , set and . Signed decoding and give ; also . Since , , hence . On one has : on put and apply [F7] to get using [F3]; on the remaining interval, by [F5] and [F6], while . Therefore Using and in step 1.1 yields .
The outcomes with contribute at most because their total probability is at most one. For the rest, group integers by , ; each shell has at most two integers. Step 2.1 gives where . By [F3], , so the total is less than .
