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.

Shooting error separates IVP integration and nonlinear residual error

Statement

Let the exact shooting residual R(s)=B(s,ϕ(b;s)) have a root s∗ whose trajectory is a BVP solution. For some r>0, suppose R is C2 on an open neighborhood of B‾2(s∗,r) (twice continuously differentiable), DR(s∗) is invertible, and DR is LR-Lipschitz on this ball, where σ:=∥DR(s∗)−1∥op−1>0 and (LR/2)r≤σ/2. Assume a certified evaluator from Certified differentiable IVP approximation interface for shooting succeeds on this ball with uniform trajectory error δIVP, and that B is LB-Lipschitz in its terminal-state argument between the exact and approximate endpoints there. For any candidate s^∈B‾2(s∗,r) with computed residual ∥B(s^,Φ~(s^))∥2≤τroot,

∥s^−s∗∥2≤2σ(τroot+LBδIVP).

If, in addition, f is C1 on an open field domain Ω, and there are an open neighborhood U⊇B‾2(s∗,r) and a compact convex K⊆Ω such that for every s∈U the IVP has a unique solution ϕ(⋅;s) on [a,b] with graph in K, and

∥f(t,y)−f(t,z)∥2≤L∥y−z∥2whenever (t,y),(t,z)∈K,

then the approximate trajectory from s^ differs uniformly from the exact BVP trajectory by at most

δIVP+eL(b−a)∥s^−s∗∥2.

The integration and root-residual terms remain separate; the theorem makes no global solver-success claim.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The BVP, exact shooting root s∗, regularity and inverse bound, radius r, certified evaluator with error δIVP, terminal Lipschitz constant LB, candidate s^ and computed residual tolerance τroot, and, when the trajectory estimate is used, the open set U, common compact convex tube K, C1 field, and state-Lipschitz bound L from the Statement.

[F1]

Square nonlinear two-point boundary-value problems and endpoint residuals: R(s)=B(s,ϕ(b;s)) is the exact endpoint residual.

[F2]

Certified differentiable IVP approximation interface for shooting: Φ~(s)=ϕ~(b;s) and sup⁡t∥ϕ~(t;s)−ϕ(t;s)∥2≤δIVP.

[F3]

Finite-budget single shooting for a nonlinear two-point BVP: the computed root-tolerance status is only the residual bound for B(s,Φ~(s)).

[F4]

Vector Newton remainder under a Lipschitz Jacobian: apply its estimate on the convex ball with its evaluation point x=s∗ and its other point x∗=s. Since R(s∗)=0, this gives R(s)=DR(s∗)(s−s∗)+q with ∥q∥2≤(LR/2)∥s−s∗∥22.

[F5]

Gronwall's integral inequality with variable and constant coefficients: a difference bound u(t)≤u(a)+L∫atu yields u(t)≤eL(t−a)u(a).

[F6]

Initial-data sensitivity of an ODE flow on a common compact tube: under the common-tube hypotheses in the Statement, exact solutions satisfy their Volterra integral equations.

Proof

1.1givenF1F4algebra

Put e=s^−s∗. The vector remainder estimate [F4] and R(s∗)=0 give R(s^)=DR(s∗)e+q with ∥q∥2≤(LR/2)∥e∥22. Since ∥e∥2≤r and ∥DR(s∗)e∥2≥σ∥e∥2, the radius condition yields ∥R(s^)∥2≥σ∥e∥2−(σ/2)∥e∥2=(σ/2)∥e∥2.

The exact and computed residuals have the same first boundary argument. By the stated terminal-state Lipschitz bound and [F2], ∥R(s^)−B(s^,Φ~(s^))∥2≤LBδIVP. The computed residual assumption therefore gives ∥R(s^)∥2≤τroot+LBδIVP. Combining with step 1.1 proves the initial-state estimate. If the candidate is the algorithm's root-tolerance output, [F3] supplies exactly the needed residual premise; other statuses supply no such premise.

Let u(t)=∥ϕ(t;s^)−ϕ(t;s∗)∥2. The common-tube C1 hypothesis makes the flows satisfy the Volterra equations by [F6], and the tube's Lipschitz bound gives u(t)≤∥e∥2+L∫atu(r)dr. Applying [F5] yields u(t)≤eL(b−a)∥e∥2 for every t∈[a,b]. The evaluator error [F2] and the triangle inequality add at most δIVP, giving the displayed trajectory estimate. The given root trajectory is the exact BVP trajectory.
