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.
Statement
Let be linear, let be an ordered basis of , and let be an ordered basis of . Then for every ,
Facts & Assumptions
Given: Ordered bases and , a linear map , and a vector .
The coordinate column contains the unique coefficients in the ordered-basis expansion, and the -th column of is (Coordinate columns and matrices of linear maps relative to ordered bases).
Proof
Write , so [L1] gives .
By linearity, ; writing gives .
The inner sum is the -th row-by-column entry of , and uniqueness of -coordinates identifies this column with .
