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 f∈W^′, the unique minimizer over w∈W~ of

Jf(w)=12⟨S~w,w⟩−⟨f,E0w⟩

is w∗=S~−1E0Tf. The conforming correction returned by BDDC is E0w∗=E0S~−1E0Tf.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The positive definite partial Schur operator S~, the averaging map E0, and an assembled residual f.

[F1]

Coefficient-scaled averaging and BDDC: E0:W~→W^ is linear and MBDDC−1=E0S~−1E0T.

[F2]

Primal constraints remove local floating kernels: under the stated primal anchoring, S~ is positive definite.

Proof

1.1givenF1algebra

Differentiating the finite-dimensional quadratic in a direction z∈W~ gives Jf′(w)[z]=⟨S~w,z⟩−⟨f,E0z⟩. Thus its critical point solves S~w=E0Tf, whose unique solution is w∗=S~−1E0Tf.

2.1givenF1F2step 1.1algebra∎

For any z∈W~, expansion about the critical point yields Jf(w∗+z)=Jf(w∗)+12⟨S~z,z⟩. By [F2] the added term is positive unless z=0, so w∗ is the unique global minimizer. Applying E0 gives the displayed BDDC correction by [F1].
