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.
Perfect fluid components in its rest frame and in a moving frame
Example
Let be the perfect-fluid tensor of Perfect-fluid divergence identity and its equivalence with the energy-balance and Euler equations, with future unit. In an inertial frame in which (fluid at rest) the components are , and all other components zero. Under the passive boost along with parameter , , , the primed components become all remaining components zero, and the observer contraction differs from by .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The affine Minkowski model with inertial frame and chart , constant (Oriented time-oriented affine Minkowski space (the spacetime primitives), Lorentz forms of inertia (3,1,0) on a 4-dimensional real vector space, Inertial frames and inertial charts of the affine Minkowski model); data , a future unit field (Norms of four-velocity and four-acceleration, and the observer rest-space decomposition); the perfect-fluid field of Perfect-fluid divergence identity and its equivalence with the energy-balance and Euler equations; the passive boost along with and (The passive Lorentz boost with parameter beta, The passive boost is a proper orthochronous Lorentz map with inverse B(-beta), Rational powers of a positive base).

Observer decomposition: for a continuous symmetric field and future unit observer the contraction is the energy density component of the unique observer decomposition, and in an adapted frame with it equals . (Observer decomposition of a symmetric stress-energy tensor)
Verification
Rest-frame components. With , and : ; for ; and .
Observer contraction in the rest frame. By [F2] applied to the observer the contraction is , consistent with step 1.1.
Boosted components. The boost matrix has , and preserves the other two spatial directions. Substituting the rest-frame components of step 1.1 into [F1] and summing the nonzero terms gives , , , , and .
The boosted observer contraction. Because the passive boost is a proper orthochronous Lorentz map (The passive boost is a proper orthochronous Lorentz map with inverse B(-beta)), the primed basis is an orthonormal future-oriented frame, so the vector with primed components is future unit; by [F2] its energy contraction is , so : this difference vanishes exactly when (i.e. ) or , and whenever ; no positivity of is assumed. The transverse diagonal components remain .
The computation uses the observer decomposition to identify the numerical contraction as the energy density of the boosted observer; it asserts no equation of state, no positivity of or and no measurement.
