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.

Hamiltonian flows preserve the symplectic form

Statement

Wherever the local flow ϕt of a Hamiltonian vector field XH is defined, it preserves the symplectic form: ϕtω=ω. No completeness assertion is made.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: A Hamiltonian vector field and its local flow.

[F1]

A Hamiltonian field is symplectic, so LXHω=0. A vector field is symplectic iff ιXω is closed.

[F2]

A tensor is invariant under a local flow exactly when its Lie derivative along the generator vanishes. A tensor field is flow-invariant exactly when its Lie derivative vanishes.

Proof

technique · direct
1.1

Since ιXHω=dH is closed, [F1] gives LXHω=0.

F1given
2.1

Apply [F2] on the domain of the local flow to obtain ϕtω=ω. Neither step extends the flow beyond its maximal domain.

Dependency tree · two levels

6 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.
