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

technique · counterexample
1.1

Both groups are one-dimensional and abelian, so their tangent brackets at the identity are zero. Sending the tangent vector 1T0R to iT1S1 is therefore an isomorphism of their real Lie algebras. Concretely, the local homomorphism is teit.

1.2

The circle is compact. The open cover {(m,m):mN, m1} 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.

givenalgebra
2.1

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.
