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.
A signed one-density on a real vector space
Definition
For an -dimensional real vector space , a one-density is a real-valued function on ordered bases such that For extend its value by zero to dependent -tuples. For it is an arbitrary real scalar on the empty basis (the empty determinant is one). Write for these densities. Positive means strictly positive on every basis; nonnegative includes zero. Negative scalar multiples remain densities; positivity is extra structure on their one-dimensional real space.
