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.
Finite abelian Parseval identity
Statement
For , For a finite set , the counting inner product on is ; it is linear in the first argument. The displayed identity says this inner product is preserved.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: A finite abelian group and functions .
The transform matrix satisfies (Finite abelian Fourier transform is unitary).
The transform is represented by the matrix entries (Normalized Fourier transform on a finite abelian group).
Proof
Expanding the left side in point-mass coordinates using [F2] gives . The inner finite sum is the conjugate of the entry of , so [F1] makes it if and otherwise.
The diagonal terms remaining from step 1.1 are exactly . Taking gives preservation of the squared counting norm as well.

Dependency tree · two levels
15 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.
