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 p with 0≤∣p∣<n and rp>0, the angle θp=2atan2⁡(rp1,rp0) in QC24 State Preparation satisfies

cos⁡(θp/2)=rp0/rp,sin⁡(θp/2)=rp1/rp.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: A valid normalized amplitude table and a prefix p with 0≤∣p∣<n and rp>0.

[F1]

The procedure defines rp as the square root of the sum of squared amplitudes over strings extending p, and uses θp=2atan2⁡(rp1,rp0) (QC24 State Preparation).

Proof

Given: As in Facts & Assumptions.

1.1F1givenalgebra

Every string extending p extends exactly one of p0 or p1, so splitting the finite sum in the definition of the prefix radii gives rp2=rp02+rp12. Both child radii are nonnegative and rp>0, so the pair (rp0,rp1) is not (0,0). By the declared atan2⁡ convention, ϕ=atan2⁡(rp1,rp0) lies in [0,π/2] and has cosine rp0/rp and sine rp1/rp.

2.1F1step 1.1algebra∎

Because θp/2=ϕ, substituting gives both displayed identities, including the cases where exactly one child radius is zero.

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.
