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.
Every continuous map from a nonempty compact Hausdorff space to a uniform space is uniformly continuous
Statement
Every continuous map from a nonempty compact Hausdorff space to a uniform space is uniformly continuous.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: A continuous map with nonempty compact Hausdorff and uniform.
A compact Hausdorff space has one compatible uniformity (A nonempty compact Hausdorff space carries exactly one compatible uniformity).
Continuity means that every neighbourhood of contains the image of some neighbourhood of , while uniform continuity is the entourage condition (Continuity of a map of topological spaces at a point and globally, Uniformly continuous map between uniform spaces).
Every entourage ball is a neighbourhood in the induced topology (The sets containing an entourage ball about each of their points form a topology). Every open cover of a nonempty compact Hausdorff space is uniform (The covers admitting an open refinement form a compatible uniform-cover structure on a nonempty compact Hausdorff space; in particular every open cover is uniform), and every uniform cover has an entourage-ball cover refining it (On a nonempty set, entourage uniformities and uniform-cover structures determine one another); every target entourage has a symmetric square root (Every uniformity has a base of symmetric entourages).
Proof
Let be a target entourage and choose a symmetric with . For each , let be the union of all open sets such that and . Continuity makes this family nonempty, and its union is an open neighbourhood of satisfying .
The open cover is uniform by [L3]. Hence there is a source entourage whose ball cover refines it: for each , some contains .
If , then for some . Thus , so . This is uniform continuity.
