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.

By [F5] and the sum and scalar rules, and . On the two-dimensional base, and . Its only nonzero Christoffel symbols, apart from lower-index symmetry, are , , and , by the metric formula in [F3]. Substitution gives , , , , , and . Applying [F2] yields the four Ricci entries in the Statement; the angular factor is the corresponding component of .
Contracting those diagonal entries with , , , gives and . These contractions are valid for either sign of because only is used.
In coordinates , the nonzero Christoffel symbols of the full metric, apart from lower-index symmetry, are All other entries are zero. Substitution of this complete list in the coordinate curvature formula of [F3] gives the following matrix of the 21 independent pair-pair components, with row and column labels : For example, the entries , and follow by using respectively the base-only, base-sphere and sphere Christoffel symbols in [F3]; the entries follow by the same substitution with the listed factors , and . The table gives all 21 pair-pair entries, not only the nonzero ones. The pair symmetries [F4] then recover every ordered component.
In the full contraction, each independent diagonal pair entry occurs four times. The entry contributes . Each of the four base-sphere entries contributes after raising its four indices with , , and ; their sum is . The entry contributes . Thus for either sign of ; only is used.
Substituting [A1] into the three terms gives respectively , , and . Adding coefficients proves the displayed polynomial.
