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.

✓ 1 result · all verified · 0 also independently AI-judged
Every result on this page is machine-checked by a proof checker and read in full and owner-audited; the judge is an additional, independent cross-model AI review of the proofs. The 1 not AI-judged were verified by owner audit (typically over a confirmed judge false positive), not failures.

Definition

Sylvester resultant of two positive-degree binary forms

Lemma

Scaling, specialization, and the affine and infinite charts of a binary resultant

Theorem

The binary Sylvester resultant detects a common geometric projective root

Lemma

Coprime positive-degree plane forms form a regular sequence

Lemma

Hilbert series and eventual Hilbert value of a two-form plane complete intersection

Definition

Projective scheme of a homogeneous quotient and its standard affine charts

Lemma

Prime and local-ring correspondence on standard projective charts

Lemma

The standard open D_+(f) of a projective quotient is the affine chart Spec((S_f)₀)

Corollary

A plane intersection with no common component is nonempty and zero-dimensional

Lemma

A zero-dimensional projective scheme has finitely many closed points with finite-dimensional local rings

Definition

Total length of a zero-dimensional projective scheme

Lemma

Localisation at a homogeneous element is graded, with graded kernels and dehomogenised degree-zero parts

Lemma

The spectrum of a finite product ring is the disjoint union of the factor spectra

Lemma

Field extension preserves the graded pieces and the total length of a zero-dimensional projective quotient

Lemma

The eventual Hilbert function of a zero-dimensional projective quotient equals its total length

Theorem

Two coprime projective plane forms meet in total length equal to their degree product

Corollary

Algebraic Bezout formula as a sum of local scheme lengths
