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 pushout along an isomorphism is isomorphic to the other factor

Statement

If f:KGf:K\to G is an isomorphism and h:KHh:K\to H is any homomorphism, then the pushout is isomorphic to HH, compatibly with the canonical maps.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The objects and hypotheses in the statement.

[L1]

Given homomorphisms f:KGf:K\to G and h:KHh:K\to H as in def-group-homomorphism, a pushout is a group PP with homomorphisms iG:GPi_G:G\to P and iH:HPi_H:H\to P such that iGf=iHhi_G\circ f=i_H\circ h, and such that every compatible pair u:GQu:G\to Q, v:HQv:H\to Q factors through a unique w:PQw:P\to Q with wiG=uw\circ i_G=u and wiH=vw\circ i_H=v. The maps f,hf,h need not be injective. (Pushouts of group homomorphisms).

[L2]

Group isomorphisms, automorphisms and the set Aut(G)\operatorname{Aut}(G). An isomorphism f:GHf:G\to H is a bijective group homomorphism (def-group-homomorphism, def-injection-surjection-bijection). When G=HG=H, it is an automorphism of GG. Write Aut(G):={f:GG:f is an automorphism}.\operatorname{Aut}(G):=\{f:G\to G:f\text{ is an automorphism}\}. (Group isomorphisms, automorphisms and the set Aut(G)\operatorname{Aut}(G)).

[L3]

The inverse of a bijective group homomorphism is a group homomorphism. If f:GHf:G\to H is a bijective group homomorphism, then its set-theoretic inverse f1:HGf^{-1}:H\to G is a group homomorphism. (The inverse of a bijective group homomorphism is a group homomorphism).

Proof

technique · direct
1.1

The maps hf1:GHh\circ f^{-1}:G\to H and idH:HH\mathrm{id}_H:H\to H are compatible because (hf1)f=h(h\circ f^{-1})\circ f=h.

givenL1L2L3
2.1

For any other compatible pair u:GQu:G\to Q, v:HQv:H\to Q, compatibility forces u=vhf1u=v\circ h\circ f^{-1}, so the unique mediator from HH is vv.

step 1.1
3.1

Thus HH satisfies the pushout universal property and is uniquely isomorphic to the given pushout. The proof also covers trivial groups.
