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.
The exponential dominates every fixed nonnegative integer power at
Statement
For every and every real ,
Facts & Assumptions
Given: and .
Every term of the exponential series is nonnegative at a nonnegative argument (The real exponential function and the number by a power series).
The exponential reciprocal identity is The exponential is positive and satisfies , and limits at infinity are Limits at and , and infinite limits at a point.
Proof
For , retain term of the series at : .
Hence .
The upper bound tends to , so the quotient tends to .
