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.

Multiplying absolutely convergent Dirichlet series gives Dirichlet convolution

Statement

Let f,g:Z>0→C. On every half-plane where both Dirichlet series converge absolutely,

(∑n≥1f(n)n−s)(∑n≥1g(n)n−s)=∑n≥1(f∗g)(n)n−s,

where f∗g is the Dirichlet convolution of Dirichlet convolution of arithmetic functions.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: Arithmetic functions f,g and a point s where both Dirichlet series converge absolutely.

[L1]

Dirichlet convolution is (f∗g)(n)=∑d∣nf(d)g(n/d) (Dirichlet convolution of arithmetic functions).

[L2]

A Dirichlet series is a series ∑ann−s over positive integers (Dirichlet series).

Proof

1.1L1L2givenalgebra

Absolute convergence makes the double series ∑m≥1∑n≥1f(m)g(n)(mn)−s absolutely convergent, so its terms may be regrouped by the product mn. The coefficient of k−s in that regrouping is ∑mn=kf(m)g(n)=∑d∣kf(d)g(k/d)=(f∗g)(k) by [L1].

2.1step 1.1∎

Therefore the product of the two Dirichlet series is the Dirichlet series of the convolution.
