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.
Riemannian metric and riemannian manifold
Definition
A Riemannian metric on a Hausdorff second-countable smooth manifold is a smooth symmetric covariant two-tensor such that for every point and every nonzero . A Riemannian manifold is the pair .
This is a A smooth tensor field giving a Smooth bundle metrics on . Dimension zero is allowed: its zero bilinear form is positive definite because there are no nonzero vectors. The empty manifold has its unique empty metric. Boundaries are allowed where stated, with smoothness understood up to the boundary.
