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.
Worked example B01 — exact finite dynamics and its first coefficient
Example
Use the two-level matrix model of Finite Dyson remainder, coefficient unitarity, and regulator counterexamples with , where is in joules. At the exact off-diagonal matrix-element square is , while its first-order squared coefficient is . At , the exact survival matrix-element square is , whereas for every positive rate in . These are finite-matrix identities. This mathematical example assigns no probabilistic interpretation to the amplitudes or their matrix-element squares.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: , the two-level Hamiltonian with in joules, the positive convention, and the times above.
The Axiom of Countable Choice (): is assumed by the finite-dynamics supplier.
QFT example units, metric, gauge, and pairing conventions: is in joule-seconds and matrix-element modulus squares are unchanged between the first-linear Hilbert pairing and coordinate convention.
Finite Dyson remainder, coefficient unitarity, and regulator counterexamples: ; the exact transition square is , the first-order squared coefficient is , and the survival square is not for .
Verification
At , the dimensionless argument is . Applying [F2], the exact off-diagonal entry is and its modulus square is . The first-order term is , whose modulus square is .
At , the argument is , so the diagonal entry of the exact evolution is and its modulus square is . Since and in , . Hence these exact finite-model survival values cannot equal one positive-rate exponential for all times. This is a matrix calculation, not a continuum decay conclusion.
At , the first-order coefficient square is , while the corresponding exact matrix-element square is . They are distinct mathematical quantities in this finite-matrix example; no probabilistic interpretation is made.
