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.
Forward discretization enters before inversion and controls the Tikhonov parameter coupling
Statement
Assume Countable Choice. Let be compact and be bounded and finite rank, between real or complex Hilbert spaces. Suppose , , with , and . Form the discretized datum before inversion. For , define and for a computed output define its exact normal-equation residual Then The forward-model term is counted before inversion and is amplified by . The regularized-operator difference is kept as a separate term; the sequence conclusion below explicitly assumes that this term tends to zero.
For a sequence of discretizations and outputs, if , then . If a certified residual evaluation satisfies , its term may be bounded by .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: Countable Choice, compact , bounded finite-rank , Hilbert spaces , , , with , , , the pre-inversion datum , and an output with its exact residual .
The Axiom of Countable Choice (): Countable Choice is the hypothesis needed for the compact spectral theorem; no full Choice is used.
Tikhonov error separates bias, data noise, discretization and solve residual: With , the exact error chain is Its last term has norm at most .
Hilbert-space Tikhonov amplifies data by at most : For bounded , .

Compact-operator Tikhonov bias vanishes on the minimum-norm solution: For compact and , as .
Proof
Both shifted normal operators are invertible by [F3], since and are bounded; hence and are well-defined. Set . Then . Substituting this equality into the five-term identity [F1] gives the exact error decomposition for the pre-inversion discretized datum.
By [F5], . By [F2], the data-noise term is at most and the pre-inversion term is at most . The last term is at most by [F1]. Applying the triangle inequality to the decomposition in step 1.1 yields the displayed error bound, retaining the regularized-operator difference as a separate term.
Along the stated sequence, the bias term tends to zero by [F4]. The combined data and forward-discretization term tends to zero by the first parameter condition; the regularized-operator difference and normal-residual terms tend to zero by the other two conditions. The bound in the Statement therefore gives . The residual-evaluation variant follows from by the triangle inequality.
