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.

- Holomorphy. is holomorphic on .
- Derivative bounds. With the complex Jacobian and the row-sum norm, for every
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The dimension , the parameter width , the set , and the holomorphic vector field with and .
Definitions of , holomorphy and the sup-norm (Analytic KAM data: angular tori, action-angle neighbourhoods, Fourier cutoffs and Diophantine frequency labels).
Cauchy bound in the parameter variable: if is holomorphic and on , then on for every (Fourier decay, Cauchy derivative bounds, lattice shell counts and the exponential small-divisor sums on action-angle neighbourhoods clause 2, with the -variable in place of the action variable).
The complex Euclidean dictionary makes complete in its Euclidean metric (Complex -space and its real coordinate dictionary). For every , , so a sequence is Cauchy or convergent in the supremum metric exactly when it is Cauchy or convergent in the Euclidean metric; hence is complete in the supremum metric as well. The set is closed: if , the reverse triangle inequality gives a positive-radius supremum ball about disjoint from (The metric topology: a set is open when every one of its points has a ball around it inside the set; closed means open complement). Thus is complete by the closed-subspace direction of Closed subspaces of complete metric spaces are complete; the converse under countable choice clause 2. This argument includes , when ; compactness is not needed.
Banach fixed point theorem: a contraction of a nonempty complete metric space has exactly one fixed point (A contraction of a nonempty complete metric space into itself has exactly one fixed point, the limit of the iterates from any starting point, Lipschitz map, -Hölder map for rational , and contraction, Complete metric space: every Cauchy sequence converges in the space).
On an open subset of , a locally uniform limit of scalar holomorphic functions is holomorphic (Locally uniform limits of holomorphic functions are holomorphic and their derivatives converge locally uniformly). A continuous separately holomorphic scalar function on a complex polydisc has a local absolutely convergent power-series expansion (A continuous separately holomorphic function is the sum of an absolutely convergent power series with Cauchy-integral coefficients on every smaller polydisc). Apply these statements to each coordinate slice and each scalar component, respectively; the several-variable statement requires continuity as well as slice holomorphy.
Operator norm and the inverse bound: for the row-sum norm one has and (The operator norm as the least bound and as the unit-sphere or unit-ball supremum); if then is invertible with and , because converges in the operator norm.
If is differentiable as a map of real variables, apply the one-variable mean-value inequality to its realification to obtain ; the derivative of a composition with a line segment is given by the chain rule (The chain rule for total derivatives: , The mean value inequality: if is continuous and differentiable on with , then , Complex -space and its real coordinate dictionary).
Proof
The closed set lies inside the parameter domain. Fix and put , which is nonempty also when . Every satisfies , so .
The map and its contraction property. Define on . For , , so . For , the segment between them lies in . By [F2], each entry of has modulus at most there. Along the segment, the derivative of each realified complex component of is therefore bounded by . Applying [F7] componentwise gives , because . Thus is a contraction with factor .
Fixed point. is complete by [F3], so [F4] gives exactly one with , i.e. , and then . If both satisfy , then each lies in because ; their connecting segment lies in the convex ball , so by the same estimate of step 2.1, hence . This proves the uniqueness assertion of clause 1 and defines .
Holomorphy. On the open set define and . Steps 1.1 and 2.1 keep every in the ball , so induction and holomorphic composition make each holomorphic. The increments satisfy for , uniformly in , hence uniformly on by step 3.1. Each scalar component of is continuous: at a point, approximate it uniformly by a continuous component of within one third of a prescribed tolerance, and use continuity of that component for the remaining third. On any coordinate disc contained in , the corresponding scalar components converge uniformly and are one-variable holomorphic, so the one-variable part of [F5] makes the limit holomorphic on that slice. Thus every component of is continuous and separately holomorphic; the polydisc part of [F5], applied on a polydisc about each point of , gives its local power-series expansion. This proves clause 2, including when every iterate is the identity; if is empty the assertion is vacuous.
Derivative bound. Differentiating the identity with respect to (both sides holomorphic in on ) gives , and by step 2.1, so [F6] gives This is clause 3.
Remarks
- Why and . The radius is what makes the range of stay in the ball while keeping the ball inside ; the smallness makes the row-sum Lipschitz constant at most , so the inverse bound costs the factor .
- Uniformity. The constant in clause 3 is explicit and independent of ; this is exactly the smallness later used to compare the perturbed frequency parametrisation with the unperturbed one.
