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.

Uniform constant-two adjacency control above a large logarithmic density

Statement

For every fixed e>0 there is ge>1 such that sup⁡p∈[gelog⁡n/n,1]P(∥A−pJ∥>(2+e)np)⟶0. Here A is the zero-diagonal adjacency matrix of G(n,p); for small n an empty parameter interval imposes no requirement. All matrix norms are Euclidean operator norms.

Facts & Assumptions

[F1]
[F2]

The uniform tail at fixed t>0 is A parameter-uniform nonbacktracking spectral tail. The probability of a union of the two bad events is at most the sum of their probabilities by The finite union bound.

[F3]

The graph law is Erdős–Rényi random graph and high probability; adjacency and the matrices J,I are defined in Adjacency, degrees, graph Laplacian, and spectral notation. Uniform limits, including the empty-interval convention, are Asymptotic quantifiers and uniform parameter ranges.

[F4]

The operator norm is the maximum over unit vectors in The operator norm is zero on the zero domain and otherwise is max_‖ v‖=1‖ Tv‖. The vector norm is homogeneous and satisfies the triangle inequality by The inner-product norm is definite, homogeneous, and satisfies the triangle inequality.

[F5]

The integral logarithm L agrees with log⁡ on (0,∞) by The integral logarithm L is the published natural logarithm, is strictly increasing by The integral logarithm is continuous and strictly increasing on (0,∞), and is unbounded above by The integral logarithm is unbounded above and below. The natural numbers are cofinal in the reals by Every complete ordered field is Archimedean.

BBK Theorem 2.2 gives ∥H∥≤rf(ρ(B)/r)+7b for a finite Hermitian H, where r=max⁡i(∑j∣Hij∣2)1/2, b=max⁡ij∣Hij∣, and f(x)=2 on [0,1], f(x)=x+x−1 on [1,∞). Its B is Definition 2.1. The formula is used only for r>0; H=0 is handled separately. This deterministic theorem is imported, while its graph application and the uniform probability argument are local.

Put u=min⁡{e/8,1/8}, δ=u, t=u, and choose ge>max⁡{1,3/u2}. Off a union of two events whose probabilities tend uniformly to zero by [F1] and [F2], r≤1+u≤1+u and ρ(B)<1+u. For r>0, the imported deterministic inequality gives ∥H∥≤rf(ρ(B)/r)+7/μ≤2max⁡{r,ρ(B)}+7/μ≤2+2u+7/μ. Indeed for ρ≤r its first term is 2r, and for ρ≥r it is ρ+r2/ρ≤2ρ. When r=0, H=0 and the same bound holds directly.

For any two operators S,T on the same nonzero Euclidean space and any unit vector v, [F4] gives ∥(S+T)v∥≤∥Sv∥+∥Tv∥≤∥S∥+∥T∥. Taking the maximum yields ∥S+T∥≤∥S∥+∥T∥. Vector homogeneity and the same maximum formula give ∥aT∥=∣a∣∥T∥ and ∥I∥=1. Apply these facts to the centering identity A−pJ=μH−pI from [F1], using 0<p≤1 and step 1.1, to obtain ∥A−pJ∥/μ≤∥H∥+p/μ≤2+2u+8/μ.

For any real M, [F5] gives b>0 with L(b)>M and a natural N>b. For n≥N, log⁡n=L(n)≥L(N)>M, so log⁡n→∞. Thus μ≥gelog⁡n→∞ with a lower bound independent of p. Since 2u≤e/4, the bound in step 2.1 is eventually at most 2+e, with one common cutoff for all p. The only exceptional events are those in step 1.1; [F2] bounds their union probability by the sum of two probabilities tending uniformly to zero. The uniform quantifiers in [F3] therefore give the stated supremum limit, including every allowed varying sequence p=p(n).
