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.

Normal form of a single-qubit ring unitary

Statement

If U=(ubvd) is a 2×2 unitary with entries in D, then for some j∈{0,…,7},

U=(u−ωjvˉvωjuˉ),∣u∣2+∣v∣2=1.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: U∗U=I, and u,v,b,d∈D.

[F1]

Linear isometries, and orthogonal or unitary operators on finite-dimensional inner product spaces: in finite dimension a unitary operator satisfies U∗U=UU∗=I.

[F2]

Unit-modulus elements of the dyadic cyclotomic ring: if x∈D and xxˉ=1, then x=ωj for some integer j.

Proof

1.1F1givenalgebra

The first column of U is a unit vector, so ∣u∣2+∣v∣2=1. Its orthogonal complement is the one-dimensional span of (−vˉ,uˉ), which is itself a unit vector. Therefore the second column is λ(−vˉ,uˉ) for a scalar λ with ∣λ∣=1.

2.1F2step 1.1algebra∎

The determinant of this displayed matrix is λ(∣u∣2+∣v∣2)=λ. Because its entries lie in D and D is a ring, λ=ud−vb∈D. By [F2], λ=ωj for some j∈{0,…,7}. Substitution gives the asserted form.

Unresolved supplier checks

The actual QC07 gate, QC09 circuit-semantics, and local entry-ring bodies were inspected; their matrix and ordered-word conventions match this argument. The supplier items remain draft and are not accepted by this record.

Dependency tree · two levels

12 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.
