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.

Elementary bounds for the periodic average, the deviation and its time derivative

Statement

Let n≥1, P>0, O⊆Rn open, and let f:R×O→Rn be continuous, continuously partially differentiable in the second variable and P-periodic in time, with average fˉ, oscillatory part f−fˉ and periodic deviation g as in Periodic averaging data: the average field, the oscillatory part and the periodic deviation (Intervals of R: the nine order-convex forms, nondegeneracy, and length). Here Dxf(t,x):Rn→Rn denotes the total derivative in the state variable, with coordinate columns ∂xjf(t,x); it exists and is continuous by If all partial derivatives exist on a neighbourhood and are continuous at a point, then the map is totally differentiable there with Jacobian derivative. The same notation is used for Dxfˉ and Dxg when those total derivatives exist. Let x0∈O, R>0 with B‾(x0,R)⊆O (Open ball, closed ball and sphere in a metric space) and let M,L≥0 satisfy

∥f(t,x)∥2≤M,∥f(t,x)−f(t,y)∥2≤L∥x−y∥2(t∈R, x,y∈B‾(x0,R)).

Then:

  1. ∥fˉ(x)∥2≤M and ∥fˉ(x)−fˉ(y)∥2≤L∥x−y∥2 for all x,y∈B‾(x0,R).
  2. g is P-periodic and ∥g(t,x)∥2≤2MP for every t∈R and x∈B‾(x0,R); moreover ∥g(t,x)−g(t,y)∥2≤2LP∥x−y∥2 for all t∈R and x,y∈B‾(x0,R).
  3. ∂tg(t,x)=f(t,x)−fˉ(x) for every (t,x); consequently ∥∂tg(t,x)∥2≤2M for x∈B‾(x0,R) and ∥∂tg(t,x)−∂tg(t,y)∥2≤2L∥x−y∥2 for all t∈R and x,y∈B‾(x0,R).
  4. g has continuous first partial derivatives on R×O; its partial derivative in the second variable is Dxg(t,x)=∫0t(Dxf(s,x)−Dxfˉ(x))ds, and ∥Dxg(t,x)∥≤2LP for t∈R, x∈B‾(x0,R), with ∥⋅∥ the operator norm on Mn(R) (The operator norm as the least bound and as the unit-sphere or unit-ball supremum). In particular g is totally differentiable at every point of R×O (If all partial derivatives exist on a neighbourhood and are continuous at a point, then the map is totally differentiable there with Jacobian derivative).

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The data n,P,O,f of Periodic averaging data: the average field, the oscillatory part and the periodic deviation, the ball centre x0, radius R, constants M,L, and the derived objects fˉ and g.

[F2]

For integrable vector-valued ϕ and a<b: ∥∫abϕ∥2≤∫ab∥ϕ∥2, and for real integrable u≤v: ∫abu≤∫abv; for constant c and h>0: ∫aa+hc=c h (For a≤b and f:[a,b]→Rm integrable when a<b, ∥∫abf∥2≤∫ab∥f∥2; for a<b, ∥f∥2 is integrable, If f≤g on [a,b] and both are integrable then ∫abf≤∫abg; and m(b−a)≤∫abf≤M(b−a)).

[F4]

Fundamental theorem of calculus: if u is continuous on an interval I and a∈I, then F(t):=∫atu is a primitive of u on I (Every continuous function on an interval has a primitive; two primitives differ by a constant; and ∫abf=G(b)−G(a) for any primitive G); in particular F has derivative u at every point of I, and a periodic function is determined by its values on [0,P].

[F5]

Leibniz's rule on a compact rectangle (Leibniz's rule on a compact rectangle: an interior parameter derivative with a continuous extension may be passed through a Riemann integral): if G,H:[a,b]×[c,d]→R are continuous and for every fixed t∈[c,d] the slice x↦G(x,t) is differentiable with derivative H(x,t), then x↦∫cdG(x,t) dt has derivative ∫cdH(x,t) dt. The componentwise application of this rule to f (whose partial derivatives in the state variable are continuous by hypothesis) supplies the identities of step 3.1 (If all partial derivatives exist on a neighbourhood and are continuous at a point, then the map is totally differentiable there with Jacobian derivative for the passage from partial derivatives to the total derivative).

[F6]

A continuous scalar function on an interval with zero derivative at every interior point is constant (A function continuous on an interval I whose derivative vanishes at every interior point of I is constant on I; consequently two such functions with the same derivative differ by a constant); applying this to every coordinate gives the same assertion for vector-valued functions.

Bounds for fˉ: for x∈B‾(x0,R), ∥fˉ(x)∥2=1P∥∫0Pf(s,x) ds∥2≤1P∫0P∥f(s,x)∥2 ds≤1P∫0PM ds=M by [F2]; and for x,y in the ball, ∥fˉ(x)−fˉ(y)∥2=1P∥∫0P(f(s,x)−f(s,y))ds∥2≤1P∫0P∥f(s,x)−f(s,y)∥2 ds≤L∥x−y∥2, again by [F2] and the assumed Lipschitz bound; this is clause 1.

Bounds for g: for t∈[0,P] and x in the ball, step 1.1 and [F2] give ∥g(t,x)∥2=∥∫0t(f(s,x)−fˉ(x))ds∥2≤∫0t(∥f(s,x)∥2+∥fˉ(x)∥2)ds≤2MP, and for x,y in the ball, ∥g(t,x)−g(t,y)∥2≤∫0t(∥f(s,x)−f(s,y)∥2+∥fˉ(x)−fˉ(y)∥2)ds≤2LP∥x−y∥2. Since g is P-periodic by its definition (it satisfies g(t+P,x)=g(t,x) and g(P,x)=0), the same bounds hold for all t∈R; this is clause 2.

Time derivative: fix x and put u(s):=f(s,x)−fˉ(x), a continuous Rn-valued function; on (0,P) the fundamental theorem [F4] gives ∂∂tg(t,x)=u(t)=f(t,x)−fˉ(x). At t=0 the right difference quotient converges to u(0)=f(0,x)−fˉ(x), while for t→0− periodicity reduces the quotient to the left derivative of g(⋅,x) at P, namely u(P)=f(P,x)−fˉ(x)=f(0,x)−fˉ(x) by periodicity of f; the same argument at every t=kP shows the derivative exists there with the same value, and away from these points it is u(t). Hence ∂tg(t,x)=f(t,x)−fˉ(x) everywhere. The oriented integral H(t):=∫0tu(s) ds has the same derivative by [F4], so H−g(⋅,x) has zero derivative and vanishes at zero; [F6] gives g(t,x)=H(t) for every real t. The bounds on f−fˉ follow from the triangle inequality and step 1.1: ∥f(t,x)−fˉ(x)∥2≤M+M=2M and ∥f(t,x)−fˉ(x)−f(t,y)+fˉ(y)∥2≤2L∥x−y∥2; this is clause 3.

Second-variable derivative and its norm bound: first fix t∈R. For x in the open ball B(x0,R) and any unit vector v∈Rn, the assumed state-Lipschitz estimate gives ∥(f(t,x+hv)−f(t,x))/h∥2≤L for every sufficiently small nonzero h; taking h→0 yields ∥Dxf(t,x)v∥2≤L. For a boundary point x∈B‾(x0,R), the sequence xj=x0+(1−1/(j+1))(x−x0), j∈N lies in the open ball and tends to x, so continuity of Dxf(t,⋅) gives the same bound at x. Taking the supremum over unit v proves ∥Dxf(t,x)∥≤L throughout the closed ball. Next fix any x∈O and a component index i. The map (s,u)↦fi(s,u), with u near x, is continuous and has continuous partial derivatives in u; [F5] applied componentwise at fixed s and t gives ∂xj∫0tfi(s,x) ds=∫0t∂xjfi(s,x) ds (first for t in a compact interval, then by additivity for all t∈R), and likewise Dxfˉ(x)=1P∫0PDxf(s,x) ds. For x∈B‾(x0,R) and every unit v, the vector integral inequality [F2] now gives ∥Dxfˉ(x)v∥2≤1P∫0PL ds=L, hence ∥Dxfˉ(x)∥≤L. Using the all-time integral identity of step 2.2, Dxg(t,x)=∫0t(Dxf(s,x)−Dxfˉ(x))ds, continuously in (t,x). For x∈B‾(x0,R), t∈[0,P] and every unit v, another application of [F2] gives ∥Dxg(t,x)v∥2≤∫0t∥(Dxf(s,x)−Dxfˉ(x))v∥2 ds≤2Lt≤2LP. Taking the supremum over unit v proves ∥Dxg(t,x)∥≤2LP on one period; periodicity gives the same bound for all t. This proves clause 4.
