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.
Rapid Hermite coefficient decay for Schwartz functions
Statement
Assume Countable Choice. Let be the space of smooth complex-valued functions for which for every pair of multi-indices . Give this space the locally convex topology with basic neighborhoods , where , , and . Let be the product Hermite basis of obtained from the multidimensional oscillator at , , and , and write . For on , every integer and every satisfy
Consequently the map is continuous from Schwartz space to each weighted square-summable sequence space with norm .

Facts & Assumptions
Given: Countable Choice, the two-dimensional Schwartz space, the common product Hermite basis in the Statement, and the differential operator acting on Schwartz functions.
The Axiom of Countable Choice (): every countable family of nonempty sets has a choice function.
Anisotropic Hermite oscillator and quadratic form basis: at and , the product Hermite functions form a complete orthonormal basis and have oscillator eigenvalues .
Multidimensional oscillator completeness: at , , , and , the unscaled product basis is , with eigenvalue .
Hermite recurrence: , where is a degree- polynomial and .
Fourier expansion in a Hilbert space: a complete orthonormal family in a Hilbert space gives the norm-convergent coefficient expansion and Parseval's identity.
Proof
Given: [A1], [F1]–[F3], , and an integer .
With these parameters, , , and . The parameter substitution in the inspected proof of [F1] uses precisely this scaling; [F2] specifies the resulting unscaled product basis and its eigenvalue .
By [F3] each Hermite factor is a polynomial times , so and all its derivatives decay rapidly enough for integration by parts against any Schwartz function. The operator is a finite sum of polynomial-coefficient derivatives and maps Schwartz space continuously to itself, hence . Repeated integration by parts in and has no boundary terms; it gives .
Parseval for the complete orthonormal basis [F1]–[F2] is supplied by [F4] and gives . Since , the asserted weighted bound follows.
Each is a finite differential expression with polynomial coefficients, so its Schwartz seminorms bound the pointwise polynomially weighted derivatives in that expression. In two dimensions, because is integrable. Thus is a continuous seminorm on Schwartz space, and the weighted coefficient map is continuous.
