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.

The unit cylinder shift: explicit local generating function, loop integral and global failure

Example

Take the cylinder C=(R/Z)×R with the shift Φ(θ,I)=(θ,I+1), i.e. a=1 in The symplectic shift of the cylinder changes λ by the closed, non-exact form a dθ and has no global generating function, and with the descended forms λC,ωC of that proposition. Then:

  1. Φ∗λC=λC+dθC and Φ∗ωC=ωC;
  2. the loop γ(t)=π(t,0), t∈[0,1], satisfies ∫01dθC(γ′(t)) dt=1≠0, confirming that dθC is not exact on C;
  3. on the chart {θ∈(0,1)} the second-kind generating function S(θ,P)=θP−θ generates the shift; globally no such C1 function exists.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The cylinder C, the shift Φ, the descended forms and the loop γ.

[F1]

The proposition The symplectic shift of the cylinder changes λ by the closed, non-exact form a dθ and has no global generating function establishes clauses 1 and 2 in general form for a≠0; for a=1 the identities read Φ∗λC−λC=dθC and ∫01dθC(γ′(t)) dt=1. [F1]

[F2]

The second-kind relations and the local chart (Generating functions of the first and second kind for a local canonical map): for θ in an open interval of length one, S(θ,P)=θP−θ satisfies Sθ=P−1, SP=θ and SθP=1, so it generates the map that sends (θ,I) with I=P−1 to (Q,P)=(θ,I+1); on the chart S is a C∞ function.

Verification

technique · direct; specialise the general identities to $a=1$, compute the loop integral, and check the generating relations on a chart
1.1F1

Clause 1 is [F1] specialised to a=1: Φ∗λC=λC+dθC and Φ∗ωC=ωC; clause 2 is the same proposition's non-exactness statement, whose proof integrates dθC along γ to 1.

2.1F1F2algebra∎

Clause 3: on the chart θ∈(0,1) the derivatives of [F2] satisfy the second-kind relations p=Sθ=P−1 and Q=SP=θ with SθP=1≠0; the generated map is (θ,I)↦(θ,I+1), which is the shift, so S generates Φ on the chart. Globally, The symplectic shift of the cylinder changes λ by the closed, non-exact form a dθ and has no global generating function clause 3 (with a=1) excludes any global C1 generating function: a 1-periodic lift S^ would satisfy S^P=θ+m for a constant integer m and S^θ=P−1, hence S^(θ,P)=θP+mP+c(θ) with c′=−1, so c(1)−c(0)=−1≠0 by the fundamental theorem of calculus, contradicting the periodicity c(1)=c(0).
