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.

A modulus need not be a conductor

Statement refuted

“Every character modulo q has conductor q.”

Facts & Assumptions

Given: Induction (Induced Dirichlet characters) and unique primitive ancestors (Unique primitive ancestor of a Dirichlet character).

Counterexample

technique · direct
1.1

Induce χ4 to modulus 12; on units it agrees with reduction modulo 4 and it vanishes at every nonunit modulo 12.

given
2.1

Its primitive ancestor is χ4, so uniqueness in the given theorem makes its conductor 4, not 12.

Dependency tree · two levels

5 results within two dependency steps of this one, each drawn at its shortest distance from it. An arrow runs from a result to what uses it, so the chart reads left to right and ends at this result, which carries a heavier outline. Every node is a link to that result.
