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.

For every , [F4] makes a bounded functional on , and [F3] gives the unique in [F2], with . Bilinearity of and uniqueness of the Riesz representative imply for real scalars , so is bounded linear. By [F1], implies ; hence is a positive-definite inner product. For every , the ideal equation is , by [F2] and exactness.
Choose an orthonormal basis of the finite-dimensional image and define . The equations in step 1.1 identify ; Pythagoras proves it uniquely minimizes distance to that image. Injectivity of gives the unique and the best-approximation identity.
The functional has Riesz representative by [F2]. Therefore [F3] gives .
