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.
BDDC is the constrained partial-energy minimizer
Statement
For every assembled residual , the unique minimizer over of
is . The conforming correction returned by BDDC is .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The positive definite partial Schur operator , the averaging map , and an assembled residual .
Coefficient-scaled averaging and BDDC: is linear and .
Primal constraints remove local floating kernels: under the stated primal anchoring, is positive definite.
Proof
Differentiating the finite-dimensional quadratic in a direction gives . Thus its critical point solves , whose unique solution is .
For any , expansion about the critical point yields . By [F2] the added term is positive unless , so is the unique global minimizer. Applying gives the displayed BDDC correction by [F1].

Dependency tree · two levels
5 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.
