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.

Fixed-round amplitude amplification query count

Statement

For a fixed k-iterate procedure, the displayed factorization of Q uses k+1 forward calls to A, k inverse calls to A†, k good-subspace phase operations, and k zero-input phase operations. It then uses one projective good/bad instrument. If classical output verification is requested, count its supplied verifier separately (one call when the task model assigns one query to verification). Controlled A, state-preparation synthesis, gates, and classical costs are separate access coordinates and are not inferred to be free.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The fixed-k procedure and access contract.

[F1]

Amplitude amplification with a fixed integer iteration count: one initial preparation A∣0⟩, followed by exactly k factors Q=−AS0A†Sgood, then one final measurement.

[F2]

Quantum query complexity: query cost counts designated calls; gates and other cost coordinates are separate.

[F3]

Circuit-family and computation cost model: named oracle calls, gates, preparation, and classical computation are distinct coordinates, and no operation is silently assigned zero cost.

Proof

1.1givenF1algebra

The initial preparation in [F1] contributes one forward A call. No inverse call occurs before the iterates.

1.2givenF1F2algebra

Each of the k displayed Q-factors contains exactly one A, one A†, one S0, and one Sgood. Adding these to the initial preparation gives k+1 forward A calls, k inverse A† calls, and k of each phase operation. The final instrument is not an oracle call unless the chosen model explicitly assigns it one.

2.1F2F3step 1.2∎

By [F2]–[F3], any verifier, controlled access, gate synthesis, state-preparation construction, and classical postprocessing retains its own declared charge; none changes the factor counts in step 1.2.

Dependency tree · two levels

28 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.
