What this part means
The lower label selects a particular version, component, or indexed member of the quantity. For example, x₀ and xₜ can be values at different positions.
Its job in the formula
A subscript distinguishes a version, component, step, or member of a quantity. It does not automatically mean multiplication.

The passage around this formula
By this article’s classification, this is about as clean a case of vertical, channel-disclosed exposure as currently exists in public: the source, the artifact, the recipient checkpoints, and the training procedure are all named in a peer-reviewed paper, so there is no attribution problem left to solve. A case definition built around a trait specific to R1’s reasoning style — a distinctive self-verification phrasing, a particular pattern of restarting a solution attempt mid-chain — would presumably return a high against any credible convergence baseline, because DeepSeek has already told the field exactly how, and how much, the trait was transferred. That is precisely why this case, on…

A subscript is a label attached below a symbol. It often selects a time step, component, category, or member of a sequence.
