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.
One Grover iterate uses one standard bit query
Statement
One execution of One Grover iterate in the standard bit-query model makes exactly one standard bit-query call, through phase kickback. The response-qubit preparation and the reflection about make no oracle calls and are charged separately as gates or explicitly supplied reflection operations.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The Grover iterate and the worst-case query-count convention.
One Grover iterate in the standard bit-query model: one standard bit query is applied to a response qubit in , after which the address reflection is applied.
Quantum query complexity: the query coordinate counts designated oracle invocations and keeps ordinary gates outside those calls separate.
One standard query implements one phase query: one prepared-response standard query induces the phase query and uses exactly one query invocation.
Proof
The algorithm contains one invocation of ; [F3] identifies that invocation with the phase mark on the address register. By [F2], this designated oracle invocation contributes one query.
The response preparation and are operations outside , so they add no oracle invocation. The iterate therefore uses exactly one query, with no gate-cost bound inferred.

Dependency tree · two levels
16 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.
