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.

Statement
Assume the Axiom of Countable Choice.
Let be one-periodic and of bounded variation on one period. Then for every ,
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The Axiom of Countable Choice, a one-periodic real function of bounded variation on one period, and a real .
For every real , (Symmetric difference formula for Fourier partial sums).
Assuming the Axiom of Countable Choice, if is of bounded variation with and as , then (Bounded variation gives one-sided Dirichlet integrability).
A bounded-variation function has both one-sided limits at every point (A bounded-variation function has at most countably many discontinuities, all of the first kind).
Assuming the Axiom of Countable Choice, Fourier coefficients of an function tend to at infinity (Riemann-Lebesgue lemma for Fourier coefficients).
Proof
By [L3], the one-sided limits and exist. Put Choose and define, on , Because translations and reflections preserve bounded variation on a compact interval, and changing a function at one point preserves bounded variation, both and have bounded variation on . The cited one-sided-limit result [L3] gives as , and by construction .
Applying [L1] with the value from step 1.1 yields
By [L2] applied to and to , and then using [L5], Hence the first integral in step 2.1 tends to .
Define Since is bounded away from on and the numerator is integrable there, . By [L5], the second integral in step 2.1 equals so it tends to by [L4].
Steps 3.1 and 3.2 make both integrals in step 2.1 tend to . Therefore , which is exactly
