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.

Proof
The quotient-estimate lemma equates closedness of with the stated estimate. Suppose these hold, and write . If , then for every , ; infimizing gives .
For the reverse implication, assume is norm closed. Both duals are Banach because the scalar field is Banach, and is bounded. The quotient-estimate lemma applied to therefore supplies with .
Let ; it is Banach as a closed subspace. The bounded map , , has dense range. The elementary identity and continuity give .
Domination yields . Conversely every vanishes on by evaluation. Thus , which is norm closed.
For any , the restriction quotient isometry supplies an extension with . The distance formula gives . Direct evaluation gives , so step 1.2 implies .
The separately proved surjectivity criterion makes onto . Hence is norm closed, proving the reverse implication. The elementary primal closure identity now yields ; step 2.1 supplies the dual identity.
If , its two ranges are zero and the primal estimate is . Both identities reduce to the same zero spaces by the elementary identities. The quotient and restriction steps allow , so no nonzero-range assumption has entered either implication.
