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.
An integral real scheme splits over the complex numbers
Statement refuted
False claims: an integral real scheme must stay irreducible or connected after extension to ; an injective morphism of schemes must remain injective after arbitrary base change. The morphism refutes all these assertions.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The objects, hypotheses and conventions in the statement above.
For a field extension and a -scheme , the inverse image of every affine open in is . These affine charts cover and are compatible on overlaps and with coefficient localizations. (Affine charts after extension of the ground field)
Let be a unital ring map. For any set of variables and any ideal , Here the extended ideal is generated by the coefficient images of all elements of . For a multiplicative subset , These are ring isomorphisms; no flatness, finite-generation or nonzero-ring hypothesis is required. (Presentations and localization under base extension)
Let be a commutative ring and let be pairwise comaximal ideals, where . Then the canonical map is surjective, its kernel is , and Equivalently, (Chinese remainder theorem for pairwise comaximal ideals)
Counterexample
The source has one point with field local ring , so it is integral and connected, and the map to the one-point spectrum of is injective. By F1 and F2 its complex base change has ring .
The factors are comaximal because is a unit. F3 gives . The two prime ideals are and ; the complementary idempotents exhibit them as two disjoint nonempty clopen points. Thus the base change is reduced but disconnected and reducible, and its map to is not injective.

Dependency tree · two levels
15 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.
