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.
Zeros of the phase-bordered BVP are phase-fixed periodic orbits
Statement
Let , , , and be as in The phase-bordered periodic-orbit BVP residual. Assume the exact flow exists uniquely on and . Then if and only if solves the augmented BVP on , with a nonconstant periodic trajectory whose phase satisfies .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: An autonomous vector field, a phase function, a positive , and a unique exact flow on from the trial point.
The augmented vector field is , its boundary map is , and its shooting residual is (The phase-bordered periodic-orbit BVP residual).
A solution of a square BVP is a differentiable curve satisfying its vector field and endpoint residual (Square nonlinear two-point boundary-value problems and endpoint residuals).
The autonomous field has a unique maximal flow satisfying (C¹ Euclidean maximal flows, variational dependence and the finite C² upgrade). Uniqueness gives the flow law wherever both sides are defined, by comparing the shifted trajectory and the solution from its shifted initial state.
The derivative of a composition is the composition of its derivatives (The chain rule for total derivatives: ).
Proof
Suppose . Set . By [F3] and [F4], . Its endpoint state has the same component as its initial state, and its initial phase residual is , so [F1]–[F2] make it an augmented BVP solution.
Define for . By [F3] it solves , and gives and . Since , it is nonconstant.
Conversely, let be a nonconstant solution on with and . Uniqueness in [F3] identifies . Thus both components of vanish, and satisfies the augmented BVP by the same chain-rule calculation as step 1.1.

25 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.
