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 fibration need not be a locally trivial bundle

Statement refuted

Every Hurewicz fibration is a locally trivial fiber bundle.

Facts & Assumptions

[F1]

Hurewicz HLP tests all initial maps and all compatible homotopies. Hurewicz and serre fibrations

[F2]

Bundle charts identify every fiber in a chart domain with the same space. Locally trivial fiber bundle

Counterexample

Given: The closed triangle E={(x,y)R2:0yx1} and projection p:E[0,1], p(x,y)=x.

1.1

For any ordinary parameter space Z, let the initial map be f(z)=(a(z),b(z))E and let h:Z×I[0,1] satisfy h(z,0)=a(z). Define L(z,t)=(h(z,t),min(b(z),h(z,t))). Its coordinates are continuous by F3–F4; the same coordinate check into the Euclidean subspace gives continuity into E. Indeed 0min(b(z),h(z,t))h(z,t)1, so its range is in E.

1.2

The fiber over zero is the singleton {(0,0)}, while for every x>0 the fiber contains the distinct points (x,0) and (x,x) and is homeomorphic to [0,x]. Any relatively open neighbourhood of zero in [0,1] contains some x>0. A chart over such a neighbourhood would, by F2, identify both fibers with one fixed fiber, forcing a singleton to be in bijection with a set containing two distinct points. This is impossible, so no bundle chart exists at zero.

F2
2.1

At time zero, b(z)a(z) implies min(b(z),a(z))=b(z), hence L(z,0)=f(z). Also pL=h at every time. This establishes F1 for every space Z, proving p Hurewicz without any universal path-space theorem or choice. It also proves the CGWH test conclusion because the triangle and interval are ordinary compact Hausdorff spaces and their interval cylinders have the same topology.

F1step 1.1
3.1

Empty test spaces in step 1.1 give the empty lift; one-point tests give the same explicit path lift. If a(z)=0 then b(z)=0 and the lift is (h(z,t),0), so emergence from the collapsed fiber is continuous. If h=0, the lift is (0,0); if h=a is constant in time, the formula fixes the original point. At x=1 and at both homotopy endpoints the same inequalities remain valid. Thus the singleton/interval change does not obstruct HLP but does obstruct local triviality, as claimed.

Dependency tree · two levels

21 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.
