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.

A smooth radial profile with a prescribed inner plateau

Statement

There exists b∈Cc∞(R) with 0≤b≤1, b(x)=1 for ∣x∣≤1, and b(x)=0 for ∣x∣≥2, such that the profile χ:[0,∞)→R defined by χ(r)=b(4r) is the restriction of a smooth function on R, equals 1 for 0≤r≤1/4, and equals 0 for r≥1/2.

Here Cc∞(R) denotes the infinitely differentiable, compactly supported real-valued functions.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: A one-dimensional smooth cutoff with unit plateau radius 1 and support radius 2 as stated in [F1].

[F1]

In dimension one there exists b∈Cc∞(R) with 0≤b≤1, b=1 on ∣x∣≤1, and b=0 on ∣x∣≥2 (Explicit compactly supported smooth cutoffs).

[F2]

Composition of a smooth function with an affine map is smooth, by the chain rule (The chain rule for total derivatives: D(g∘f)(a)=Dg(f(a))∘Df(a)).

Proof

technique · direct
1.1F1choose

Choose b supplied by [F1] and set χ(r)=b(4r) for r≥0.

2.1step 1.1F1F2algebra∎

The function x↦b(4x) is smooth by [F2], so its restriction is the stated smooth profile. If 0≤r≤1/4, then ∣4r∣≤1 and b(4r)=1; if r≥1/2, then ∣4r∣≥2 and b(4r)=0. The bounds on b are inherited by composition.

Dependency tree · two levels

13 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.
