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.
Riemann data , : shock speed and entropy coefficients, and a rarefaction check
Example
Assume (The Axiom of Countable Choice ()) for the cited Lebesgue weak/entropy formulation.
Take in the shock of Riemann shock and rarefaction waves for are weak solutions, and the shock is an entropy solution. The shock speed is . For the entropy pair :
- for , which lies strictly between and , the interface coefficient is ;
- for , which lies outside the interval , the coefficient is ;
both nonnegative, in accordance with the theorem's closed formula in the interior case and in the exterior case.
For the rarefaction with , the fan satisfies identically, and the entropy residuals vanish because the fan is continuous.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: Countable choice. The Riemann data above and the theorem of Riemann shock and rarefaction waves for are weak solutions, and the shock is an entropy solution.
For the shock : is a weak solution with , and when , while when or (Riemann shock and rarefaction waves for are weak solutions, and the shock is an entropy solution, Weak and entropy solutions of the scalar conservation law ).
Verification
For : , and . Hence , the interior formula.
For : and , so , the exterior value; both computed coefficients are as the theorem requires.
For the rarefaction at and : , and by [L2] with , , , so .
The computations instantiate the theorem's weak-solution and entropy identities at explicit data: the interior entropy coefficient is positive, the exterior one vanishes, and the rarefaction branch satisfies the equation pointwise.
Remarks
- This is a finite check of the closed formulas; it does not test the general weak formulation beyond the stated Riemann profiles, and the numerical values are chosen only to exhibit both the interior and the exterior case of the entropy coefficient.
