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.
BQP to PP and PSPACE proof obligations in the exact QC14 basis
Remarks
The established containments and remain proof obligations for the exact QC14 gate alphabet , whose entries lie in (BQP for promise problems in the fixed QC14 model, Clifford+T gate library and exact matrices). The PP route must encode amplitudes and acceptance weights over this number field, prove the required GapP closure, and compare against the strict threshold. The BQP thresholds and differ by ; each is at distance from (equivalently, has margin at least ). A rational path count cannot simply replace the exact computation, since the probabilities can contain . The PSPACE route needs exact-field or certified-precision recursive evaluation with explicit bit-length and space bounds for each arithmetic and threshold step. The source containment arguments are context, not local proof suppliers; no containment item is claimed here.

Dependency tree · two levels
18 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.
