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.
QC24 Prefix Norm Rotation Identities
Statement
For a prefix with and , the angle in QC24 State Preparation satisfies
Facts & Assumptions
Given: A valid normalized amplitude table and a prefix with and .
The procedure defines as the square root of the sum of squared amplitudes over strings extending , and uses (QC24 State Preparation).
Proof
Given: As in Facts & Assumptions.
Every string extending extends exactly one of or , so splitting the finite sum in the definition of the prefix radii gives . Both child radii are nonnegative and , so the pair is not . By the declared convention, lies in and has cosine and sine .
Because , substituting gives both displayed identities, including the cases where exactly one child radius is zero.

Dependency tree · two levels
11 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.
