Direct answer
Proof Status, in this definition, is limited to the following inspected scope. Formal theorem declarations and the distinction between a proposition, proof term, and checker result. Current local proof-verification status model. The answer carries the source boundaries forward and does not infer authority from a neighboring topic.
Term boundaries and disambiguation
Use the term only for the source-backed scope stated here; keep adjacent concepts separate unless a typed relationship is explicit.
A useful definition states both inclusion and exclusion conditions so a machine answer cannot silently widen it.
Applied scope: Formal theorem declarations and the distinction between a proposition, proof term, and checker result. Current local proof-verification status model.
Definition and operating context
The canonical concept owner is maha-research. This route may apply evidence; it cannot redefine or inherit the authority of its canonical owner.
This property may publish research objects, machine-readable provenance, reproduction protocols. It must not publish sales copy or unsupported interpretation.
Evidence and exact locators
Theorem Definitions — Theorem Definitions: syntax, elaboration, proof term, and irreducibility. Establishes: Formal theorem declarations and the distinction between a proposition, proof term, and checker result.
Maha Lean bridge verifier — verification result and refusal construction. Establishes: Current local proof-verification status model.
What the evidence does not establish
A checked proof establishes only the encoded proposition under its formal assumptions; it does not validate empirical premises.
A local verifier result is implementation evidence; it does not establish empirical truth or external review.
This route must not claim sales copy.
This route must not claim unsupported interpretation.

Questions this page can answer
What does Proof Status mean in this bounded context?
Proof Status, in this definition, is limited to the following inspected scope. Formal theorem declarations and the distinction between a proposition, proof term, and checker result. Current local proof-verification status model. The answer carries the source boundaries forward and does not infer authority from a neighboring topic.
Which inspected sources support this definition answer?
Theorem Definitions (Lean Language Reference inspected 2026-09-05), at Theorem Definitions: syntax, elaboration, proof term, and irreducibility, supports formal theorem declarations and the distinction between a proposition, proof term, and checker result. Maha Lean bridge verifier (repository source inspected 2026-09-05), at verification result and refusal construction, supports current local proof-verification status model.
What does the evidence not establish?
A checked proof establishes only the encoded proposition under its formal assumptions; it does not validate empirical premises. A local verifier result is implementation evidence; it does not establish empirical truth or external review. Property boundary: This route may apply evidence; it cannot redefine or inherit the authority of its canonical owner.
Which definition or canonical owner must be read first?
Read the maha-research definition at https://research.mahastrategies.com/federation/research/proof-status/definition first. The present page applies that definition through its narrower route role.
What source, policy, implementation, or release change would require revision?
Re-evaluate this page when a cited source, locator, governing instrument, local implementation, or canonical definition changes. Publication also requires a matching exact-revision review and active canonical release.
