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.

Fixed-coefficient Cattaneo entropy and propagation

Statement

Let C,κ,τ,T0,L>0. Let Ω be either R3 or the flat torus TL3:=(R/LZ)3, and let I⊆R be an open interval containing 0. Consider real smooth fields θ:I×Ω→R and q:I×Ω→R3 satisfying

Cθt+div⁡q=0,τqt+q=−κ∇θ.

The derivatives are ordinary derivatives of the Euclidean spatial coordinates; on the torus they are defined using periodic lifts. Write U=(θ,q) and let ej be the jth standard basis vector of R3. Define

Aj:=(0ejT/C(κ/τ)ej03×3),B:=diag⁡(0,(1/τ)I3),M:=diag⁡(C,(τ/κ)I3).

Then the displayed system is Ut+∑j=13Aj∂jU+BU=0. The matrix M is a positive symmetrizer, meaning M=MT is positive definite and MAj is symmetric for each j. For a unit direction ν∈R3, define the principal matrix A(ν):=∑j=13νjAj; its eigenvalues are 0 (multiplicity two) and ±vh, where vh:=κ/(Cτ)>0. For a fixed comparison speed c∗>0, vh≤c∗ if and only if κ≤Cτc∗2.

For every such solution and every s0∈R, define the specified quadratic effective entropy density and flux by

seff:=s0+CθT0−Cθ22T02−τ∣q∣22κT02,js:=qT0−θqT02.

Every smooth solution satisfies the exact identities

∂tseff+div⁡js=∣q∣2κT02≥0,∂teL+div⁡(θq)=−∣q∣2κ,eL:=12(Cθ2+τκ∣q∣2).

For every unit direction ν, its quadratic flux satisfies ∣θq⋅ν∣≤vheL. The density eL is a positive quadratic Lyapunov density, not a physical energy density. The entropy identity asserts nonnegative production for this specified quadratic effective current; it does not assert positivity of seff for arbitrary data or a nonlinear material entropy law. These equations define the mathematical subsystem considered here; the sources give model context and do not establish a material-specific realization.

Use the exact global-solution, Fourier-coefficient, and weighted-norm conventions in [F1]. For initial data U0=(θ0,q0)∈S(R3;R4) or C∞(TL3;R4), the unique global smooth evolution, its weighted Sobolev contraction, and finite propagation at speed vh follow conditionally from [F1] after checking the matrices below. On TL3, for every integer r>3/2, set

Kr,L,C:=C−1/2(∑k∈Z3(1+∣k/L∣2)−r)1/2<∞,

where C>0 is the heat-capacity coefficient and ∥⋅∥HMr(TL3) is the norm in [F1]. The periodic global solution supplied conditionally by [F1] obeys T0+θ(t,x)>0 for all t≥0 whenever Kr,L,C∥U0∥HMr(TL3)<T0. The constant uses only the temperature component C∣θ^k∣2 of the supplied quadratic norm, so it does not compare heat-flux and temperature coordinates by a least eigenvalue. Although [F1] states a generic periodic supremum bound with unspecified constant Cs,L,M, the explicit Kr,L,C bound here is derived directly from Fourier reconstruction and the stated norm contraction.

If the symbols receive their conventional SI thermal interpretation, take θ,T0 in K, C in J m−3 K−1, κ in W m−1 K−1, τ in s, L in m, q in W m−2, and the comparison speed c∗ in m s−1. Use the spatial coordinates in the inherited Fourier norms as their numerical values in metres, so the unit-frequency term in 1+∣k/L∣2 uses the reference length 1 m. Then s0 and seff have entropy-density units J m−3 K−1, js has entropy-flux units J m−2 s−1 K−1, and eL has units J K m−3 rather than energy-density units. The norm ∥U∥HMr has units J K m−3 and Kr,L,C has units m3 K/J, so their product has temperature units. These unit labels do not assert a physical realization of the linear subsystem.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: Positive constants C,κ,τ,T0,L, an open time interval I containing 0, a smooth solution of the displayed system on I, and the stated spatial setting. For the conditional global-evolution clause, take U0 in the stated Schwartz or smooth-periodic data class.

[F1]

Conditional evolution supplier Complete symmetrized constant-coefficient evolution: assume ACω, an integer d≥1, U:R×R3→Rd, and constant real matrices A1,A2,A3,B,M∈Rd×d with M=MT positive definite, each MAj symmetric, and S:=(MB+BTM)/2 positive semidefinite. For Ut+∑jAj∂jU+BU=0, the supplier gives a unique global smooth solution for Schwartz data on R3 and smooth periodic data on TL3. Its negative-sign, 2π-normalized Fourier transform is U^(ξ):=∫R3e−2πix⋅ξU(x) dx, and ∥U∥HMs2:=∫R3(1+∣ξ∣2)sU^(ξ)∗MU^(ξ) dξ contracts for every s≥0 and t≥0. On the torus, with U^k:=L−3∫[0,L]3U(x)e−2πik⋅x/L dx, ∥U∥HMs(TL3)2:=∑k∈Z3(1+∣k/L∣2)sU^k∗MU^k also contracts. Its finite propagation speed is v∗:=sup⁡∣ν∣=1max⁡{∣λ∣:λ∈spec⁡(M1/2A(ν)M−1/2)}: if v∗>0, R>v∗t, and U0 vanishes on BR(x0), then U(t) vanishes on BR−v∗t(x0) for 0≤t<R/v∗, with the same result on TL3 using geodesic distance; if v∗=0, every Aj=0. The current carrier and proof are draft; this exact interface is used conditionally.

[A1]

The Axiom of Countable Choice (ACω) defines ACω as a choice function for each countable family of nonempty sets. This is the only choice strength used through [F1].

[F2]

Schwartz space and its seminorms: S(R3) consists of smooth complex-valued functions for which every seminorm sup⁡x∈R3∣xα∂βf(x)∣ is finite; real components are viewed as complex-valued functions with zero imaginary part, and this condition is imposed componentwise on R4-valued data.

Proof

1.1givenalgebra

Differentiate the first system equation in time and take the divergence of the second. Substituting div⁡q=−Cθt gives Cτθtt+Cθt−κΔθ=0, or τθtt+θt−(κ/C)Δθ=0.

1.2givenalgebra

Expanding the derivative of seff and the divergence of js gives ∂tseff+div⁡js=Cθt+div⁡qT0−θ(Cθt+div⁡q)+q⋅(τqt+κ∇θ)/κT02. The first equation makes both occurrences of Cθt+div⁡q zero, and the second gives τqt+κ∇θ=−q. Thus the expression equals ∣q∣2/(κT02).

1.3givenalgebra

Differentiating eL and adding the flux divergence gives ∂teL+div⁡(θq)=θ(Cθt+div⁡q)+q⋅(τκqt+∇θ)=−∣q∣2κ, where the first term vanishes by the energy equation and the second equality uses the Cattaneo equation. Since C,τ,κ>0, eL is a positive definite quadratic form in (θ,q).

1.4givenalgebra

Write U=(θ,q), ej for the jth standard basis vector of R3, Aj=(0ejT/C(κ/τ)ej03×3), and B=diag⁡(0,(1/τ)I3). With M=diag⁡(C,(τ/κ)I3), MAj=(0ejTej03×3) is symmetric, M is positive definite, and S=(MB+BTM)/2=diag⁡(0,(1/κ)I3) is positive semidefinite. For each unit ν, the longitudinal block of A(ν) has eigenvalues solving λ2=κ/(Cτ) and the two transverse eigenvalues are zero. Since M is positive definite, M1/2 is invertible and the supplier's matrix M1/2A(ν)M−1/2 is similar to A(ν), so it has the same eigenvalues and maximum absolute eigenvalue vh=κ/(Cτ). Finally, ∣θq⋅ν∣≤∣θ∣∣q∣≤12κ/(Cτ)(Cθ2+(τ/κ)∣q∣2)=vheL, since 2Cτ/κ∣θ∣∣q∣≤Cθ2+(τ/κ)∣q∣2.

2.1F1step 1.4algebra

Fix a periodic solution from [F1]. For k≠0, choose a coordinate j with ∣kj∣≥∣k∣/3; periodic integration by parts N times and ∣∂jNU^k∣≤sup⁡x∣∂jNU(t,x)∣ give ∣U^k(t)∣≤CN,t,L(1+∣k∣)−N. For each integer n≥1, the disjoint unit cubes centered at lattice points with n≤∣k∣<n+1 lie in an annulus of bounded extra width and volume O((n+1)2), so the shell has O((n+1)2) points. Hence ∑k(1+∣k∣)−N<∞ for N>3, and the Fourier series converges absolutely and uniformly. To identify its sum with U, use the product Fejer kernel: in one dimension the normalized kernel is FN(y)=1L(N+1)∣∑ℓ=0Ne2πiℓy/L∣2. It is nonnegative with integral one, and for torus distance ∣y∣≥δ with 0<δ<L/2, the geometric-sum formula bounds it by [L(N+1)sin⁡2(πδ/L)]−1. For the three-dimensional product, the mass outside the cube of coordinate distances less than δ is bounded by the sum of the three one-dimensional tail masses, hence tends to zero. Uniform continuity of U(t,⋅) then shows that convolution with these kernels converges uniformly to U(t,⋅). The convolutions are finite Fourier sums with weights ∏j=13(1−∣kj∣/(N+1))+; absolute convergence makes the same sums converge uniformly to ∑kU^k(t)e2πik⋅x/L. Thus this series equals U(t,x).

2.2F1A1F2step 1.4

The matrices in step 1.4 have four components, positive-definite M, symmetric MAj, and S≥0, so they satisfy [F1]'s hypotheses under [A1]. The data class in the Statement is exactly the Schwartz/periodic class in [F1], using the componentwise Schwartz definition in [F2]. The eigenvalue computation in step 1.4 gives v∗=vh>0. Applying [F1] therefore supplies the unique global smooth evolution for each stated data class, contraction of every stated weighted Sobolev norm for t≥0, and the shrinking-ball finite-propagation conclusion at speed vh on R3 and on TL3.

3.1F1step 2.2step 2.1algebra

The same shell count in step 2.1 shows the lattice sum in Kr,L,C converges: its shell contribution is O((j+1)2−2r), summable for r>3/2. Set ak:=(1+∣k/L∣2)−r/2 and bk:=(1+∣k/L∣2)r/2C ∣θ^k(t)∣. For each finite Fourier box, expanding ∑k(ak−λbk)2≥0 and minimizing over λ∈R gives (∑kakbk)2≤(∑kak2)(∑kbk2), with the zero-b case immediate; increasing boxes and taking monotone limits gives the same inequality for the series. The explicit diagonal matrix M=diag⁡(C,(τ/κ)I3) gives C∣θ^k(t)∣2≤U^k(t)∗MU^k(t) for every k. Therefore ∣θ(t,x)∣≤∑k∣θ^k(t)∣≤Kr,L,C∥U(t)∥HMr(TL3)≤Kr,L,C∥U0∥HMr(TL3), where the Fourier reconstruction is justified in step 2.1 and the last inequality is [F1] contraction. If the last quantity is less than T0, then T0+θ(t,x)>0 for every x and t≥0.

Since C,κ,τ,c∗>0, squaring the positive quantities in vh≤c∗ gives the equivalent condition κ≤Cτc∗2, and reversing the same steps proves the converse.
