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.

A symbolic 600 K and 300 K engine bound

Physical scope

A hypothetical two-ideal-bath engine calculation using the preceding conditional theorem; it reports no measured engine or empirical efficiency.

Example

Consider a hypothetical ideal-reservoir engine cycle with Th=600 K and Tc=300 K, with all the assumptions of Ideal-bath heat-engine efficiency bound. Its efficiency is at most 1/2. This is a model calculation, not an observed performance.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: Th=600 K, Tc=300 K, and an admitted heat-engine cycle in the ideal-bath scope of the preceding theorem.

[F1]

Ideal-bath heat-engine efficiency bound: η≤1−Tc/Th; equality requires zero total entropy change.

[F2]

SI quantities and unit conventions: thermodynamic temperature is measured in kelvins, so the ratio of two temperatures is dimensionless.

Verification

1.1givenF2algebra

The stipulated ratio is Tc/Th=300/600=1/2.

2.1F1step 1.1algebra∎

Apply [F1] to obtain η≤1−1/2=1/2. Equality is available only under the theorem's entropy-neutral condition; no experimental result is being reported.
