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 fixed integer and integer a with , define , and by restricting their defining sums to integers, respectively primes, congruent to a modulo q. Then No uniformity in a growing modulus is asserted.

The bounded, locally integrable function has Laplace transform After the removable value at zero is filled in, this extends holomorphically to an open neighborhood of the closed right half-plane.

Proof
For each of the finitely many characters, the transform lemma and Newman theorem show convergence of . This uses the change of variable in the convergent truncated integrals.
Orthogonality gives . For nonunits every character term is zero and, as a is a unit, so is the residue-class indicator. Thus finite summation of the preceding convergent integrals yields convergence for . This residue-class psi is nonnegative, nondecreasing and O(x), so desmoothing proves its asymptotic. No monotonicity of complex character sums was assumed.
The difference between class psi and class theta is nonnegative and bounded by the global prime-power difference, hence is o(x). Therefore class theta has the same main coefficient .
The Abel identity for this finite prime sum follows directly by summing over its primes. Hence class pi is class theta divided by log x plus its Abel integral. With , that integral is by splitting at square root x, so . The argument includes q=1 and allows constants to depend on q.
