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.
The dual mortar basis is biorthogonal and uniformly stable on the trace space
Statement
For the spaces and basis of Dual P1 mortar multipliers for boundary contact, put . Then The pair satisfies the mesh-independent trace-space inf-sup bound Moreover, defines a nonnegative functional on the cone of nonnegative functions in , and .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: A finite contact partition with edge lengths , continuous P1 nodal basis , and local dual functions as in Dual P1 mortar multipliers for boundary contact.

The local dual functions are and , assembled by their nodal indices. (Dual P1 mortar multipliers for boundary contact)
Proof
Given: A contact edge partition, its continuous P1 trace basis, and the broken dual basis.
On one edge, direct integration of [F1]–[F2] gives , , , and . Summing over edges, only the edges incident to node contribute to , and no edge contributes to for ; hence the global pairing is . This also proves linear independence of the .
On an edge, the consistent P1 mass matrix is , whose eigenvalues are . The local dual coefficient map is , with eigenvalues on the same sum/difference vectors. Therefore, for local nodal coefficients , ; for primal nodal coefficients , .
Summing the local inequalities in step 2.1 gives and , where and . By step 1.1, . Taking with nodal coefficients makes the numerator and the denominator at most , proving the inf-sup bound. If and , then every and the same pairing is nonnegative; conversely testing against each nonnegative hat shows any nonnegative functional has , hence .
