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.
Computational-basis amplitudes of a graph state
Statement
Let be an ordered finite simple graph with . In the ordered computational basis indexed by ,
where the exponent is evaluated as an integer and only its parity affects the sign.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The edge-product definition of on the ordered register.
The graph-state definition gives the ordered finite register, computational basis, and finite edge-gate product (Graph state of an ordered finite simple graph, Big-endian encoding of ordered bit strings, Ordered tensor registers, their inner product, and wire permutations).
The controlled-phase definition gives at angle (Controlled Phase Rotation).
Proof
Tensoring over the ordered finite vertex set gives . For this is the single empty tuple with coefficient one.
By [F2], applying to a basis vector multiplies it by and leaves its basis label unchanged. Thus the lexicographically ordered edge product multiplies by the product of these signs over all edges.
Multiplying the signs gives , so substituting the expansion from step 1.1 into the graph-state definition proves the formula, including the empty-edge and empty-vertex cases.

Dependency tree · two levels
23 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.
