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.
Augmented RBF-FD weights reproduce polynomials and obey a local Taylor bound
Statement
Let be an integer, let be distinct and -unisolvent for , and let be a real strictly conditionally positive-definite kernel of order . Fix a center , an ordered basis of , and a homogeneous constant-coefficient differential functional of order for which all section derivatives in Exact augmented RBF-FD weights for a local differential functional exist. Let be the exact output of that procedure and put . Then the procedure returns success, and for every , If on an open convex set containing the compact convex hull , then Consequently, when , a separately proved bound yields the order truncation bound. Unisolvence alone is not asserted to provide this weight-norm bound.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The sites, kernel, polynomial basis, center, functional, and function hypotheses in the Statement.
The exact algorithm forms the augmented matrix with blocks , right side , and applies deterministic Gaussian elimination with row pivoting; the lower block of any solution is . (Exact augmented RBF-FD weights for a local differential functional)
Under strict conditional positive definiteness of order and -unisolvence, the augmented matrix is invertible for every right-hand side. (Strict positive and conditionally positive augmented interpolation systems are invertible, Radial kernels, polynomial augmentation, and site geometry)
Taylor's theorem gives a degree- polynomial at whose value remainder at is bounded by times the supremum of all order- partial derivatives on the segment. (Multivariable Taylor formula with a Lagrange remainder along a line segment)
Proof
Given: The hypotheses above. All linear algebra and arithmetic in the algorithm are exact.
Let be the augmented matrix and its right side in [F1]. It is square and invertible by [F2]. Initially the leading pivot block is invertible. Inductively suppose the first pivots have been nonzero. After their row swaps and elimination, the row-equivalent matrix has block form with invertible and the remaining Schur complement. The block matrix is invertible, so is invertible: if , then would be a nonzero vector in its kernel. If the first column of were zero, its first coordinate vector would be a nonzero kernel vector. Thus the finite set of remaining entries in column contains a nonzero entry, and the algorithm's least-index rule finds a nonzero pivot. Row swaps and adding multiples of pivot rows are invertible elementary row operations, so they preserve the solution set. After pivots the matrix is upper triangular with nonzero diagonal, and descending substitution returns the unique solution. Therefore the singular-system status is unreachable under the hypotheses.
Writing the returned vector as , its lower block equation is . For each basis polynomial , this says . Every is a linear combination , so multiplying these identities by and summing, using linearity of , gives .
Let be the Taylor polynomial of at of total degree at most . Since , its derivatives at through order agree with those of , so . Applying step 2.1 to gives .
Subtract the identity in step 3.1 from the sampled sum for . For every , [F3] bounds by times the derivative supremum on , since each segment lies in the convex hull . The triangle inequality and now give the stated truncation estimate. When , the additional weight bound yields the final conditional rate.
