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 isotropic oscillator of the model: explicit solution, the determinant and matrix tests on each two-dimensional block, and the area and energy checks
A worked verification of the symplectic and volume-preserving character of the model's Hamiltonian flow on the isotropic oscillator instance: the explicit solution of the one-label model with potential , the block matrix identity and unit determinant of its time- map, the area and six-volume checks on explicit boxes, and the constancy of the oscillator energy. All quantities are model values of the declared idealization; no measurement is reported.

Verification
The curve solves the system: differentiating the displayed formula with the derivatives of [F3] gives and because ; by [F2] this is exactly the Hamiltonian system, which proves claim 1.
Grouped-order canonical identity: with and , the derivative is and . Block multiplication gives . Under the declared permutation from grouped to interleaved order, , so . Thus the full six-dimensional derivative is canonical in the grouped coordinates and has unit determinant, proving claim 2.
Volume checks and energy: on each coordinate pair the linear action is , so the unit square maps to the parallelogram spanned by its columns and has numeric area . The permutation in claim 2 identifies the grouped map with the product of these three pair maps; permutation does not change determinant, so the numeric six-volume of the unit box is , which is one unit of action cubed under the declared SI coordinate scales (claim 3). For the energy, [F4] and give constancy of along the curve, and the direct computation , gives after substituting , the mixed terms cancelling; this proves claim 4.
Collecting steps 1.1, 1.2 and 2.1 proves the four claims on the declared data.
