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.
Amplitude-estimation query and precision complexity
Statement
For , repeated controlled- access uses exactly controlled- applications in one run; each expands to one call each to controlled , controlled , controlled , controlled , and the control phase. Supplied controlled-power access uses exactly power queries and reports their separate costs. With fixed success probability, additive amplitude error is obtained with , hence repeated controlled- calls; state preparation, ordinary gates, and classical encoding are separate costs.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The -label amplitude-estimation circuit and the access mode from Amplitude estimation and counting input/output contract.
The phase-estimation circuit uses one controlled power for each (QFT-based amplitude estimation).
QPE charges exactly supplied powers or repeated controlled-unitary calls (Phase-estimation query and gate costs).
The quantum query model counts only declared oracle actions (Quantum query complexity).
In repeated-unitary mode, each controlled expands into separately declared controlled , controlled , controlled , controlled , and control phase. In power-query mode each supplied controlled power has its own declared cost vector, including any constituent implementations used (Amplitude estimation and counting input/output contract).
The error guarantee is the inequality in Amplitude-estimation additive error and success probability.
Proof
In repeated access, the th power takes calls by [F2]. Summing gives . In supplied-power access, there is one call for each of indices, hence queries.
In repeated-unitary mode, [F4] makes each controlled- call the charged product listed in the Statement. In power-query mode, the model instead charges each supplied controlled power and its declared cost vector, without inferring any constituent capability from a bare uncontrolled call.
For , choose the least power of two at least . By [F5], the error is at most , with success probability at least . The least-power choice gives , so [F3] yields the repeated-call bound; other cost coordinates remain separate.
