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.
Signed comparison for forward-sector relations
Definition
Let be finite-support real coefficient maps on the tagged state labels of Tagged scalable compounds with equal total coefficient. For a typed state , compound notation uses the represented map from Forward-sector hypotheses for a simple state domain; its raw unit point mass is . Signed maps still use the ordinary total of their raw coefficients, exactly the bookkeeping mass of the represented nonnegative maps. Put , and . Define to mean under the compound relation of Forward-sector hypotheses for a simple state domain. Write when both and . These are formal signed comparison maps, not physical negative amounts. The positive and negative parts are finite-support compounds of equal mass. If , then for every real : positive uses scaling, is reflexivity, and negative swaps the positive and negative parts while equivalence supplies both comparison directions. This Definition introduces the signed notation; ordinary-order compatibility and the signed-order laws are proved separately.
