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.

Proof
Given: The ordered coupling, phase and code vectors in the statement.
Goal: Compute the needed coefficients and normalized output populations.
In the total magnetic-weight-one product basis , , , write the highest-weight vector as . The total raising equation gives and . With positive and unit norm, these equations give . Lowering this vector once and twice, with the spin-one factors , gives and . These are the coupled vectors by the definition in [F1].
Reading their product-basis coefficients and multiplying by gives exactly the five stated actions and . The identity follows from [F2]. For , its two magnetic components have different nonzero jump labels, so their output cross terms never occur within a single conjugation. For , the three outputs have their stated squared amplitudes. Squaring and summing therefore gives the two diagonal population vectors, unchanged by phases on the two components of . A different common coupled phase multiplies all by the same unit scalar and changes none of these conjugation or product claims.
