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
Adopt the stationary vacuum model and regular non-degenerate stationary construction, with original exterior section spacelike and maximal, ADM mass one, and stationary Killing field not identically zero on the bifurcation sphere . Use the supplied normalized Ernst potential , where and is real, and the single regular Harrison family with its invariant one-form and pole satisfying . Let , , , , and .

Given: The model, construction and conventions in the Statement.
Goal: Prove the inverse relation and the displayed contraction identity on .
By positivity of , both and are nonzero. The map is invertible, so applying to the electromagnetic formula in [F3] and multiplying by the reciprocal scalar gives the inverse relation. The metric relation is the first formula in [F3].
In the frame of [F5], and , while all mixed components vanish: the Hodge star maps the normal and tangent area forms to each other in this oriented orthonormal frame. Raising with in that frame and summing both orders of each antisymmetric index pair gives .
The transfer formula in [F4] with gives . Substitution of the electromagnetic formula yields the first displayed contraction equality. Finally and step 1.2 give . This proves the identity at every point of .
