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.

Two-site Pauli observables commute at disjoint sites

Statement

Take d=1, spin dimension q=2, and distinct sites x,y∈Z. On C2 define the Pauli matrices

X=(0110),Z=(100−1).

Let Xx and Zy be their one-site observables embedded in the two-site algebra A{x,y} by the factor inclusions of Local spin matrix algebras and their factor inclusions. Then Xx and Zy are self-adjoint unitaries of norm one and commute. This is a finite example of the locality clause in Quasi-local algebra completion and locality.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The two-site qubit algebra and its isometric factor inclusions.

[F1]

A finite region has algebra B(HΛ), and inclusion into a larger region tensors with the identity (Local spin matrix algebras and their factor inclusions).

[F2]

Those factor inclusions preserve products, adjoints and operator norm (Local spin factor inclusions preserve the operator norm).

[F3]

Observables supported on disjoint finite regions commute in their common finite tensor algebra (Quasi-local algebra completion and locality).

Proof

technique · direct

Given: x≠y, q=2, and facts [F1]–[F3].

1.1givenF1F2algebra

Direct matrix multiplication gives X∗=X, Z∗=Z, X2=Z2=I, and ∥X∥=∥Z∥=1 because each preserves the Euclidean norm and is nonzero. By [F2], the embedded Xx and Zy have the same adjoint, square and norm properties.

1.2givenF1algebra

If x<y, lexicographic factor order gives Xx=X⊗I and Zy=I⊗Z, so (X⊗I)(I⊗Z)=X⊗Z=(I⊗Z)(X⊗I). If y<x, the factors are interchanged and both products are Z⊗X. Thus in either ordering XxZy=ZyXx.

2.1F3step 1.2∎

The supports {x} and {y} are disjoint; the computed commutation is therefore the stated instance of the general disjoint-locality clause.
