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.

Smooth weak equivalence and moving jump residual

Statement

Assume Countable Choice: every sequence of nonempty sets admits a choice function. Let T>0, let Ω⊆R3 be open, and let m≥1 be an integer. Let J⊂(0,T) and D⊂R2 be open, and let h∈C1(J×D) have graph Γ={(t,x′,x3):(t,x′)∈J×D, x3=h(t,x′)} contained in an open patch O⊂(J×D×R)∩((0,T)×Ω). Here x=(x′,x3) and all space-time points in this lemma use time-first coordinates (t,x); the coordinate permutation (t,x)↦(x,t) identifies these fields and tests with the spatial-first domains in the conservative weak-form definition. The minus and plus sides are O−=O∩{x3<h(t,x′)} and O+=O∩{x3>h(t,x′)}. Let U±,S± be Rm-valued and F± be Rm×3-valued fields that are C1 on their respective sides and admit C1 one-sided extensions to every relatively compact part of Γ. For a matrix flux F, Fj∈Rm denotes its jth spatial column and (div⁡xF)a=∑j=13∂xjFaj. For any one-sided trace G, write [G]=G+−G−. Put λ=1+∣∇x′h∣2, and define the unit normal from minus to plus and its signed normal speed by n=(−∇x′h,1)λ,Vn=∂thλ. Interpret U,F,S as the ordinary locally integrable piecewise functions defined by their side values and traces; no singular measure supported on Γ is added to S. The interior weak identity for ∂tU+div⁡xF=S is the test identity of the conservative weak-form definition for every ϕ∈Cc1(O;Rm). It holds if and only if ∂tU±+div⁡xF±=S± on both sides and [F]n−Vn[U]=0 on Γ. The initial-data term in the weak initial form is independent; this interior jump condition neither asserts nor requires a strong trace at t=0.

For scalar fields H±,R± and vector fluxes G± with the same piecewise C1 regularity, the interior weak inequality ∂tH+div⁡xG≥R means ∫O(H ∂tψ+G⋅∇xψ+Rψ) dx dt≤0 for every nonnegative ψ∈Cc1(O). It holds if and only if ∂tH±+div⁡xG±≥R± on both sides and [G]⋅n−Vn[H]≥0 on Γ. These are local equivalences for prescribed piecewise-smooth fields, not existence or uniqueness theorems for nonlinear systems. The fields are abstract mathematical variables with no assigned physical units or constitutive model.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: Use the conservative weak identity and weak inequality as defined on the A page. The interface is strictly interior in time and space, its graph is C1, and the one-sided fields and traces have the stated regularity.

[F1]

Locally integrable conservative weak and initial forms: for an interior test, the system identity is ∫(U⋅∂tϕ+F:∇xϕ+S⋅ϕ)=0; for a scalar inequality ∂tH+div⁡Q≥R, its weak integral is ≤0.

[A2]

Adopt the Countable Choice convention of Locally integrable conservative weak and initial forms for its restricted complete Euclidean Lebesgue spaces, almost-everywhere identification and signed integrals.

[F2]

A linear map T of Rn sends Lebesgue measurable sets to Lebesgue measurable sets, with λn(T[E])=∣det⁡T∣ λn(E) when T is invertible and T[E] Lebesgue null when it is not: under Countable Choice an invertible linear map P on R4 carries every Lebesgue-measurable set E to a measurable set of measure ∣det⁡P∣λ4(E). For P(t,x1,x2,x3)=(x1,x2,x3,t), P and its inverse are coordinate permutations and ∣det⁡P∣=1.

[A1]

The piecewise C1 fields have no additional measure-valued source supported on Γ; all interface terms come from the jump in the ordinary one-sided traces.

Proof

1.1givenF1F2A1A2constructalgebra

By [A2] and [F2], P and P−1 preserve the Lebesgue sigma-algebra and measure. Pullback by P bijects nonnegative simple minorants and preserves their level-set measures, so the nonnegative integral is preserved by its defining supremum; applying positive and negative parts gives the same conclusion for the integrable tested scalar products in [F1]. Thus the time-first coordinates and the spatial-first weak definition give the same test integrals. For a test ϕ supported in O, apply the product rule to the space-time current (U±,F1±,F2±,F3±) separately on O− and O+. Coordinatewise integration by parts in t,x1,x2,x3 gives ∫O(U⋅∂tϕ+F:∇xϕ+S⋅ϕ)=−∫O−W−⋅ϕ−∫O+W+⋅ϕ−∫J×DKgraph⋅ϕ(t,x′,h(t,x′)) dx′ dt, where W±=∂tU±+div⁡xF±−S± and Kgraph=[F3]−∂th[U]−∇x′h⋅[F1,2]. Compact support removes all outer-boundary terms; the remaining graph term is the difference of the two side conormal fluxes.

1.2givenalgebra

The unnormalised space-time conormal from minus to plus is (−∂th,−∇x′h,1). Its contraction with the jump current equals Kgraph=[F3]−∂th[U]−∇x′h⋅[F1,2]=λ([F]n−Vn[U]). Since λ>0, the graph coefficient vanishes exactly when [F]n−Vn[U]=0, and has the same sign as the scalar entropy jump coefficient.

If the weak identity holds, choose tests supported wholly inside either side in step 1.1. Each continuous component of W± must vanish: a nonzero value would have a fixed strict sign on a small ball and contradict the identity for a nonnegative C1 bump there. With these bulk terms zero, step 1.1 gives zero integral of Kgraph against every trace of a test. Any compactly supported C1 graph test ζ(t,x′) extends to the patch as ϕ(t,x′,x3)=ζ(t,x′)η(x3−h(t,x′)), where η is a C1 cutoff with η(0)=1 and sufficiently small support. Such a uniform tube lies in O because the graph over supp⁡ζ is compact in this open patch. A nonzero component of continuous Kgraph would have a fixed sign on a small graph patch and contradict the identity. Hence W±=0 and Kgraph=0. Conversely, these equalities make the weak integral zero by step 1.1, and step 1.2 gives the stated jump condition.

3.1step 1.1step 1.2step 2.1givenF1A1∎

For the scalar inequality, step 1.1 gives the weak integral as the negative of the bulk integrals of g±=∂tH±+div⁡xG±−R± and the negative graph integral with coefficient KH=[G3]−∂th[H]−∇x′h⋅[G1,2]. If both bulk residuals and KH are nonnegative, the weak integral is nonpositive for every nonnegative test. Conversely, a negative bulk residual at a point admits a nonnegative bump supported on that side and violates the weak inequality. If KH<0 at a graph point, continuity gives a smaller graph patch where KH is bounded above by a negative constant. Choose a nonnegative test with fixed positive trace on that patch and support in a tube of width ε about the graph. The negative interface contribution to the weak integral is positive and independent of ε, while the bounded bulk terms have magnitude O(ε); for small enough ε the weak integral is positive, a contradiction. Hence both the side inequalities and KH≥0 are necessary. Step 1.2 shows KH=λ([G]⋅n−Vn[H]), so the stated jump sign is equivalent.
