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.

The circle and line have the same Lie algebra but different Lie groups

Counterexample

The connected Lie groups (R,+) and S1 have isomorphic one-dimensional abelian Lie algebras, but they are not isomorphic Lie groups: S1 is compact and R is not.

This item is stated under ZF+ACω.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The usual additive real Lie group and the unit circle under multiplication.

[L1]

Connected integrations of a fixed Lie algebra are discrete central quotients of its simply connected integration (Lie algebras determine connected Lie groups only locally).

Refutation

1.1givenalgebra

Both groups are one-dimensional and abelian, so their tangent brackets at the identity are zero. Sending the tangent vector 1∈T0R to i∈T1S1 is therefore an isomorphism of their real Lie algebras. Concretely, the local homomorphism is t↦eit.

1.2givenalgebra

The circle is compact. The open cover {(−m,m):m∈N, m≥1} of R has no finite subcover, so R is not compact. A Lie-group isomorphism is a homeomorphism and preserves compactness. Therefore the groups are not isomorphic.

2.1L1step 1.1step 1.2∎

In the language of [L1], both arise from the simply connected group R: the line uses the zero kernel, while the circle uses the nonzero discrete central kernel 2πZ. Thus the same one-dimensional Lie algebra does not determine the connected group. The declared ACω is propagated from [L1]; the explicit witness and compactness argument introduce no additional choice.
