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 240 K and 300 K refrigerator bound
A hypothetical ideal two-bath refrigerator calculation using the preceding conditional theorem; it reports no measured appliance coefficient or work.
Example
Consider a hypothetical refrigerator cycle with cold-bath temperature , hot-bath temperature , and extracted per cycle. In the ideal-bath model, its cooling coefficient of performance is at most , so its work input is at least . No appliance measurement is asserted.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The stipulated positive temperatures, , and an admitted ideal-bath refrigerator cycle.
SI quantities and unit conventions: is measured in kelvins and in joules.
Verification
The temperature difference is , so .
By [F1], . Since , this implies .
