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.

First-order CQ error for a compatible quadratic datum

Statement

Let 0<α<1, λ≥0, T>0, u0∈R, and u(t)=u0+t2 on [0,T]. Define

f(t):=2t2−αΓ(3−α)+λ(u0+t2).

Then u solves DCαu+λu=f and satisfies the compatibility condition u′(0)=0. For h=T/N and the backward-Euler CQ solution from Backward-Euler convolution quadrature for a Caputo equation with Fn=f(nh), there is a constant Cα,T independent of N, u0, and λ such that

max⁡0≤n≤N∣Un−u(nh)∣≤Cα,Th.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: 0<α<1, λ≥0, T>0, u0∈R, u(t)=u0+t2, the forcing above, and h=T/N.

[F1]

Fractional integral and Caputo derivative: DCαu=I1−αu′ almost everywhere. At points where the integral is finite, its pointwise integral value supplies the representative used here; step 2.1 verifies finiteness for this polynomial.

[F2]

Backward-Euler convolution quadrature for a Caputo equation: ∂ˉhαvn=h−α∑j=0nωjvn−j for v0=0.

[F3]

The real Beta--Gamma identity: B(p,q)=Γ(p)Γ(q)/Γ(p+q) for positive p,q.

[F4]

The real Gamma functional equation Γ(s+1)=sΓ(s): Γ(x+1)=xΓ(x) for x>0 and Γ(1)=1.

[F5]

Generating-coefficient estimate for the quadratic CQ datum: if β=2−α, the coefficient sn in the real Taylor series of z(1+z)(1−z)α−3 on (−1,1) satisfies ∣sn−2nβ/Γ(β+1)∣≤Cαnβ−1.

[F6]

Scalar resolvent stability for backward-Euler convolution quadrature: the algorithm's updates define the unique sequence satisfying the shifted CQ recurrence; for zero initial data and λ≥0, the solution driven by forcing rn is bounded by Γ(1−α)(2T)αmax⁡n∣rn∣.

[F7]

Absolute continuity on a compact interval: absolute continuity means that summed endpoint increments over any finite disjoint interval family are small whenever the total interval length is small.

[F8]

Real powers for positive bases, with the zero-base positive-exponent convention and Continuity and derivatives of positive-base real powers: 0p=0 for p>0, tp is continuous for t≥0, and (tp)′=ptp−1 for t>0.

[F9]
[F12]

Inside the common radius the product of two power-series sums is represented by the Cauchy product of their coefficients: the product of two power-series sums has the Cauchy-product coefficients inside their common radius.

For any finite disjoint interval family [aj,bj]⊆[0,T], ∑j∣u(bj)−u(aj)∣=∑j(bj−aj)(aj+bj)≤2T∑j(bj−aj). Given ε>0, choosing δ=ε/(2T+1) verifies absolute continuity by [F7]. For almost every t∈(0,T), u′(t)=2t by [F8], so u′∈L1(0,T); therefore the Caputo derivative is defined by [F1].

By [F8], u′(s)=2s for s>0; at s=0 the one-sided difference quotient is s2/s=s→0, so u′(0)=0. Thus [F1] gives DCαu(t)=2Γ(1−α)∫0t(t−s)−αs ds=2t2−αΓ(1−α)B(2,1−α)=2t2−αΓ(3−α), where the substitution s=ty and [F3]–[F4] give the last two equalities. Thus the stated f makes u an exact solution, and u′(0)=0.

Put v(t)=t2, so v(nh)=h2n2. Starting from the geometric series [F10] and differentiating termwise by [F11] gives ∑n≥0n2zn=z(1+z)/(1−z)3. Multiplying this generating series by h−α(1−z)α and using [F12] shows that the discrete Caputo derivative of the exact nodal values is h2−αsn, with sn from [F5]. The exact derivative from step 2.1 is 2h2−αn2−α/Γ(3−α).

Therefore the residual τn:=∂ˉhαv(nh)−DCαv(nh) satisfies ∣τn∣≤Cαh2−αn1−α=Cαh(nh)1−α≤CαT1−αh by [F5].

Subtracting the exact equation from the CQ recurrence, the error En:=Un−u(nh) has E0=0 and satisfies ∂ˉhαEn+λEn=−τn. Apply [F6] and step 4.1 to obtain max⁡n∣En∣≤Γ(1−α)(2T)αCαT1−αh. The coefficient of h depends only on α and T, proving the result.
