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.

Explicit hypothesis and convention check for the moving-patch flux

Example

Throughout this Example and Verification, the spatial labels are local one-based names: xi:=x(i−1) for i=1,2,3, e1=(1,0,0), e2=(0,1,0), e3=(0,0,1), and ∂i denotes the canonical coordinate derivative ∂i−1 under this relabeling. Thus the locally named ei has canonical coordinate 1 at i−1 and 0 at the other coordinates; the tuples, inner product, cross product, divergence and curl retain the canonical meanings of The Euclidean inner product ⟨x,y⟩=∑k<nxkyk on Rn, The cross product in R3 and Divergence and curl of a C1 vector field. This local notation does not change the zero-based indices of Localization: vanishing integrals or fluxes force a continuous function to vanish.

Take the unit square D=[0,1]2 as parameter region, an open interval I⊆R, a function a∈C2(I) with a>0 everywhere, and

r(u,v,t):=(a(t)u, a(t)v, 0),B:=e3,v(x,t):=a′(t)a(t) (x1,x2,0).

Then r is of class C2 on the open set R2×I, the tangent vectors are ru=(a,0,0) and rv=(0,a,0) with ru×rv=(0,0,a2)≠0 on D∘×I∘=D∘×I, the field B is constant with div⁡B=0, and v is C1 on R3×I with v(r(u,v,t),t)=(a′(t)u,a′(t)v,0)=rt(u,v,t); so the data satisfy the standing hypotheses of Moving parametrized surface patches and their flux. For every t∈I the parametrized flux is Φ(t)=a(t)2, hence Φ′(t)=2a(t)a′(t); the fixed-time surface integral of ∂tB is 0; and curl⁡(v×B)=−2(a′(t)/a(t)) e3, so patch Stokes gives ∮∂S(t)(v×B)⋅dr=−2a(t)a′(t), exactly the sign in the formula of Transport of flux through a moving patch. Dropping the term −∮(v×B)⋅dr — that is, treating the moving patch as fixed — would leave Φ′=0, which the direct derivative contradicts whenever a′(t)≠0. All maps are of the stated regularity and no singular support is involved; the example verifies the sign convention and the necessity of the motion term, and asserts no physical law.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The unit square D=[0,1]2; an open interval I⊆R; a function a∈C2(I) with a>0; the maps r, B, v displayed in the Example; and a fixed time t∈I.

[L1]

Moving patch and transport identity: in the setting of Moving parametrized surface patches and their flux under the declared ACω, with div⁡B=0 on its domain, the flux Φ(τ)=∫D⟨B(r(p,τ),τ),ru(p,τ)×rv(p,τ)⟩ dp is differentiable on I and, at every τ∈I at which ru×rv is nonvanishing on D∘, satisfies Φ′(τ)=∫S(τ)∂τB⋅n dS−∮∂S(τ)(v×B)⋅dr, with the induced orientation and boundary chain (Transport of flux through a moving patch).

[L2]

The unit square is an elementary Green region: with a0=0, b0=1, α≡0, β≡1 on [0,1], the set D has both the Type I description {(x,y):0≤x≤1, 0≤y≤1} and the analogous Type II description, so it is a compact elementary Green region, hence a finite elementary Green region, and it is compact and Jordan measurable; its volume is vol⁡(D)=(1−0)(1−0)=1 (Type I, Type II, and elementary regions for Green's theorem, Axis-parallel rectangles in Rm and their volume).

[L3]

Integrals of constants over D: for every constant c, the Riemann integral over the Jordan set D is ∫Dc du dv=c. Indeed D is its own nondegenerate bounding rectangle, so by The Riemann integral of a bounded function over a bounded Jordan measurable set ∫Dc is the Darboux integral of c over D; on every cell of every grid partition both the infimum and the supremum of c equal c, so every lower and upper Darboux sum equals c∑ivol⁡(Qi)=cvol⁡(D)=c by Lower and upper Darboux sums over a grid partition in Rm, The lower and upper Darboux integrals over a nondegenerate rectangle in Rm and Grid partitions of a rectangle in Rm, their cells, refinements and mesh, whence the common value is c (Axis-parallel rectangles in Rm and their volume).

[L4]

Calculus and vector analysis rules: a>0 makes a′/a of class C1 on I and v of class C1 jointly in (x,t) (Ck Euclidean maps and diffeomorphisms, Sums, scalar multiples, products and quotients: (f+g)′(c)=f′(c)+g′(c), (αf)′(c)=αf′(c), (fg)′(c)=f′(c)g(c)+f(c)g′(c), and (f/g)′(c)=(f′(c)g(c)−f(c)g′(c))/g(c)2 when g(c)≠0); the product rule gives (a2)′=2aa′, and the time derivative of the constant field B satisfies ∂tB≡0; with the Example's local ∂i=∂i−1 coordinate relabeling, the partial derivatives, divergence, curl, cross product and Euclidean inner product are those of Divergence and curl of a C1 vector field, The cross product in R3 and The Euclidean inner product ⟨x,y⟩=∑k<nxkyk on Rn (The chain rule for total derivatives: D(g∘f)(a)=Dg(f(a))∘Df(a)).

[L5]

Patch Stokes: for a C2 patch over a finite elementary Green region and a C1 field G on a neighbourhood of its image, ∮φ(∂D)G⋅dr=∫D⟨(curl⁡G)∘φ,φu×φv⟩, with the induced boundary chain, the positive boundary orientation and the line integrals as cited (The classical Stokes theorem for a C2 patch over a finite elementary Green region, The induced boundary chain and circulation of a C2 patch over a finite elementary Green region, Positive orientation of elementary-region boundaries, Scalar line integrals with respect to arc length and vector-field line integrals, Unit normal fields, orientations, and flux through a regular surface patch).

Setting and regularity. The map r(u,v,t)=(a(t)u,a(t)v,0) is of class C2 on the open set R2×I, since it is polynomial in (u,v) with C2 coefficients, with ru=(a,0,0), rv=(0,a,0) and ru×rv=(0,0,a2)≠0 on D∘×I because a>0; further v(x,t)=a′(t)a(t)(x1,x2,0) is C1 jointly, and v(r(u,v,t),t)=a′a(au,av,0)=(a′u,a′v,0)=rt(u,v,t), while div⁡B=0 for the constant field B=e3. Thus the geometric and analytic hypotheses of [L1] hold, and D is the elementary Green region of [L2]. At each time D has connected interior and r(⋅,t) is injective since a(t)>0, so it is a regular patch for the Stokes application [L5].

The flux and its derivative. At each τ, ⟨B(r), ru×rv⟩=⟨e3,(0,0,a(τ)2)⟩=a(τ)2, a constant in (u,v); hence by [L3] Φ(τ)=∫Da(τ)2 du dv=a(τ)2. Therefore Φ′(t)=2a(t)a′(t) for every t∈I by the product rule of [L4].

2.2step 1.1L3L4L5algebra

The two terms on the right-hand side. Since B is constant, ∂tB≡0 and the surface integral ∫S(t)∂tB⋅n dS vanishes. For the boundary term, [L4] gives v×B=a′a(x1,x2,0)×(0,0,1)=a′a(x2,−x1,0) and then curl⁡(v×B)=(0,0,∂1(−a′ax1)−∂2(a′ax2))=(0,0,−2a′a)=−2a′ae3 at time t; consequently (curl⁡(v×B))∘r=−2a′ae3 is constant on D, and patch Stokes [L5] together with the constant-integral fact [L3] gives ∮∂S(t)(v×B)⋅dr=∫D⟨−2a′ae3,(0,0,a2)⟩ du dv=−2a′aa2∫Ddu dv=−2a(t)a′(t).

Comparison. The direct computations of steps 2.1 and 2.2 give 2a(t)a′(t)=0−(−2a(t)a′(t)), so the transport formula holds here by direct computation without Choice; under the declared ACω it also instantiates Transport of flux through a moving patch, with the boundary term contributing +2a(t)a′(t) to Φ′; if that boundary term is dropped, the identity would read Φ′(t)=0, contradicting step 2.1 whenever a′(t)≠0. The example therefore checks the sign convention and the necessity of the motion term at the stated C2/C1 regularity without singular support, and it asserts no physical law.

Remarks

  • When a is constant, Φ(t)=a2 is constant, both terms of the identity vanish, and the contrast with the fixed-patch reading disappears; the example's discriminating case is therefore any t with a′(t)≠0.
  • The computation uses no choice principle; it is finite algebra and one application of the published Stokes theorem for a patch over the unit square.
