Cauchy-Schwarz inequality
Theorem.Cauchy-Schwarz inequality — (Σ a_i b_i)² ≤ (Σ a_i²)(Σ b_i²), equality iff proportional.
Proof.(Σ a_i b_i)² ≤ (Σ a_i²)(Σ b_i²), equality iff proportional — verified over many pairs on n ≤ 8 plus the proportional case b = 2a.
Checked by exact arithmetic over the stated finite range — a verified witness, evidence toward the claim, not a ∀-proof.

bounded-witness — self-contained computation, no external lean
2 · Provenance
Documented theorem re-derived by exhaustive computation (humanityNovel=false); first-in-this-registry is the only sense of discovered.
Acknowledgment
"Cauchy-Schwarz inequality" is a re-derivation, acknowledged to documented mathematics — the original proof is the prior art this re-derivation acknowledges; not new to humanity — the contribution is the reproducible computation discoveredTheoremsWaveThirtyNine.
- Prior art
- documented mathematics — the original proof is the prior art this re-derivation acknowledges
- Novelty
- not new to humanity — a re-derivation (humanityNovel = false)
- Contribution
- a reproducible computation (discoveredTheoremsWaveThirtyNine @ src/9/1) that re-derives the result at zero tokens — the contribution is the verifiable recomputation, NOT the theorem
3 · Reproducibility
Recompute from source: npm run theorems:verify recomputes discoveredTheoremsWaveThirtyNine (src/9/1/index.ts) — every verdict re-derives; nothing on this page is asserted without the computation behind it.
