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.

Events with the same probability need not be independent

Statement refuted

If two events have the same probability, then they are independent.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The uniform probability space on Ω={1,2,3}.

[L1]

Uniform event probability is event cardinality divided by ∣Ω∣ (The uniform probability space on a nonempty finite set).

[L2]

Independence requires P(A∩B)=P(A)P(B) (Independent events, pairwise independence, and mutual independence of a finite family).

Counterexample

1.1

Let A={1,2} and B={2,3}. Then P(A)=P(B)=2/3.

L1construct
2.1

Their intersection is {2}, so P(A∩B)=1/3≠4/9=P(A)P(B).

Thus equal event probabilities do not imply independence.

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.
