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 planar rigid motion is controlled by its trace on a segment

Statement

Let ΓD be a fixed straight segment of length L>0 in the geometry of Partial-trace displacement space on a polygon. For every planar infinitesimal rigid motion r(x)=a+ωJx, where a∈R2, ω∈R, and J=(0−110), there is a constant C=C(Ω,ΓD) such that ∥r∥H1(Ω)≤C∥TDr∥L2(ΓD).

Facts & Assumptions

Given: A bounded polygon Ω, a straight Dirichlet segment ΓD of positive length, and an affine rigid motion r(x)=a+ωJx.

[F1]

On H1 fields with a representative extending continuously to the closed Dirichlet collar UD‾, TD agrees with that extension's boundary restriction to ΓD; in particular this holds for fields in H1(Ω;R2)∩C(Ω‾;R2). (Partial-trace displacement space on a polygon, The Lp trace operator on a bounded C1 domain)

[A1]

The Axiom of Choice is inherited through the fixed C1 trace interface defining TD. (The Axiom of Choice, Partial-trace displacement space on a polygon)

Proof

technique · direct

Given: x(s)=x0+sτ parametrizes ΓD by arclength for 0≤s≤L, with ∣τ∣=1, and r(x)=a+ωJx.

1.1A1F1givenalgebra

The globally affine rigid motion r is continuous on UD‾, so [F1] identifies TDr with its boundary restriction. Put A:=a+ωJx0 and decompose A=A∥Jτ+A⊥ with A⊥⋅Jτ=0. Since J is a quarter-turn, r(x(s))=A+ωsJτ. Integrating the two orthogonal components and completing the square in ∫0L(A∥+ωs)2ds gives ∥TDr∥L2(ΓD)2=L∣A⊥∣2+L(A∥+ωL/2)2+ω2L3/12.

2.1A1F1step 1.1givenalgebra∎

The last term of step 1.1 controls ∣ω∣2, the first controls ∣A⊥∣2, and the middle term together with ∣ω∣ controls ∣A∥∣2; hence ∣A∣+∣ω∣≤CL∥TDr∥L2(ΓD). Because a=A−ωJx0 and Ω is bounded, direct integration of r and its constant gradient gives ∥r∥H1(Ω)≤CΩ(∣a∣+∣ω∣)≤C(Ω,ΓD)∥TDr∥L2(ΓD). If the trace vanishes, this also forces a=0 and ω=0.
