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.

✓ 3 results · all verified · 2 also independently AI-judged
Every result on this page is machine-checked by a proof checker and read in full and owner-audited; the judge is an additional, independent cross-model AI review of the proofs. The 1 not AI-judged were verified by owner audit (typically over a confirmed judge false positive), not failures.

ALE, interfaces and partitioned multiphysics coupling — Examples

1 · Prerequisites

2 · Summary

Worked ALE and interface cases

These examples instantiate the two separate branches on ale-interface-and-partitioned-multiphysics-discretization. Each calculation is finite and exact; none asserts a general nonlinear fluid-structure result.

Moving mesh

An expanding cell preserves a constant state uses two periodic cells. Their initial widths are both one; a single interior face moves right by 0.01, so the cell Jacobians become 1.01 and 0.99. The upwind ALE flux changes each extensive cell value by exactly the corresponding geometric volume change, leaving the constant state and total mass unchanged.

Diffusion interface

A two-domain heat trace balances outward fluxes constructs two positive-definite backward-Euler blocks whose scalar Schur operators are S1=2 and S2=1. It computes the common trace, the equal-and-opposite outward fluxes, and both passes of the Robin-Robin iteration needed to certify the trace tolerance.

Added mass

A toy sequential coupling can amplify velocity error sets ms=1 and mf=2 in the specifically defined scalar recurrence. It shows the increment doubles in magnitude at each pass, which demonstrates instability of that recurrence only.

A toy sequential coupling can amplify velocity error

Statement

In the scalar recurrence of Scalar added-mass staggered recurrence, set ms=1, mf=2, and choose δv0≠0. Then δvn=(−2)nδv0, so the increments grow geometrically in magnitude.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The recurrence msδvn+1=−mfδvn from Scalar added-mass staggered recurrence, with ms=1, mf=2, and δv0≠0.

[F1]

Scalar added-mass staggered recurrence: for ms,mf>0, msδvn+1=−mfδvn.

Verification

1.1givenF1algebra

Dividing [F1] by ms=1 gives δvn+1=−2δvn.

2.1step 1.1algebrainduction

Induction yields δvn=(−2)nδv0: it holds at n=0, and multiplying the formula at n by −2 gives it at n+1.

3.1givenF1step 2.1algebra∎

Since ∣δv0∣>0, ∣δvn∣=2n∣δv0∣ and ∣δvn+1∣=2∣δvn∣>∣δvn∣. If instead δv0=0, step 2.1 gives zero increments throughout, so the nonzero hypothesis is needed for growth. Thus this specified recurrence is unstable in the stated scalar sense; no broader FSI claim follows.

An expanding cell preserves a constant state

Statement

On a two-cell periodic grid take Δξ=1, Δt=0.1, period L=2, initial faces x1/2=0, x3/2=1, x5/2=2, physical speed a=0, and periodic face velocities w1/2=0, w3/2=0.1, w5/2=0. If both initial cell averages equal U∈R, the successful ALE upwind step has Jacobians 1.01 and 0.99, preserves both averages at U, and conserves total mass 2U.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The grid, time step, face velocities, physical speed, and constant initial average in the Statement.

[F1]

Periodic one-dimensional moving grid: Jin=(xi+1/2n−xi−1/2n)/Δξ, the face update is xi+1/2n+1=xi+1/2n+Δt wi+1/2n, and ci+1/2=a−wi+1/2.

[F2]

Conservative upwind ALE finite-volume step: after checking Jin+1>0, the algorithm uses F^i+1/2=ci+1/2+uˉi+ci+1/2−uˉi+1 and Jin+1uˉin+1=Jinuˉin−(Δt/Δξ)(F^i+1/2−F^i−1/2).

[F3]

The upwind ALE step conserves mass and preserves constants: a successful periodic upwind ALE step preserves mass and every constant input state.

Verification

1.1givenF1F2algebra

The moved faces are 0, 1.01, and 2. Hence the two updated Jacobians are 1.01 and 0.99, both positive, so [F2] returns success and performs the state update.

1.2givenF1F2algebra

The relative speeds at these faces are 0, −0.1, and 0, so the fluxes are 0, −0.1U, and 0. Formula [F2] gives J1n+1uˉ1n+1=U−0.1(−0.1U)=1.01U and J2n+1uˉ2n+1=U−0.1(0.1U)=0.99U. Dividing by the positive Jacobians gives both updated averages equal to U.

2.1F1F3step 1.2algebra∎

The new total mass is 1.01U+0.99U=2U, equal to the old mass U+U. This is the finite instance of [F3].

A two-domain heat trace balances outward fluxes

Statement

Take a one-dimensional trace space Λ=R, two interior spaces Ii=R, Δt=2, M1=M2=I2, A1=diag⁡(1/2,3/2), and A2=diag⁡(1/2,1/2), with the second coordinate as trace. Let the condensed loads be f1=1, f2=5. The monolithic trace is 2 and the outward fluxes are 3 and −3. With α=1, r10=2, tolerance 0.1, and budget M=2, the Robin–Robin algorithm returns the certified trace 2 on its second pass.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The finite-dimensional local blocks, trace coordinates, condensed loads, Robin parameter, incoming datum, tolerance, and pass budget in the Statement.

[F1]

Finite-dimensional backward-Euler diffusion transmission model: Bi=Δt−1Mi+Ai, qi=Siλi−fi, and the monolithic trace solves (S1+S2)λ=f1+f2.

[F2]

The diffusion Schur complement is positive and minimizes energy: each positive-definite local block has a positive-definite Schur complement.

[F3]

Monolithic backward Euler transmission energy identity: when traces match and outward fluxes balance, paired interface work cancels in the monolithic energy identity.

[F4]

Finite-budget Robin-Robin transmission iteration: each pass performs the two Robin solves and exchanges and stops only when the stated residual test passes.

[F5]

Robin-Robin iteration contracts to the monolithic trace: a passing stop test certifies trace error at most ε relative to the monolithic trace.

Verification

1.1givenF1F2algebra

The local backward-Euler blocks are B1=diag⁡(1,2) and B2=diag⁡(1,1), which are positive definite. With zero off-diagonal blocks between the interior and trace coordinates, their Schur operators are S1=2 and S2=1, so [F2] applies.

1.2F1F4algebra

On pass one, λ11=(2+1)/3=1, r21=(1−2)1+1=0, λ21=(0+5)/2=2.5, and r11=(1−1)2.5+5=5. Here q1=∣(1−2)/(1+2)∣=1/3, q2=0, and the stop threshold is 0.1/(1/3)=0.3; the incoming-data change is ∣5−2∣=3, so the algorithm does not stop.

2.1F1F3step 1.1algebra

The monolithic scalar equation is 3λ=6, hence λ∗=2. Its fluxes are q1=2(2)−1=3 and q2=1(2)−5=−3, so they balance and the interface work λ∗(q1+q2) vanishes as in [F3].

3.1F4F5step 1.2step 2.1algebra∎

On pass two, λ12=(5+1)/3=2, r22=(1−2)2+1=−1, λ22=(−1+5)/2=2, and r12=(1−1)2+5=5. The incoming-data change is 0≤0.3, so [F4] returns converged with trace 2; [F5] certifies its error is at most 0.1 relative to λ∗=2 from step 2.1.
