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 finite-dimensional normed subspace is closed

Statement

Let V be a normed space and let WV be a normed subspace. If W admits an ordered basis of finite length, then W is closed in V.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: A normed space V and a normed subspace WV that admits an ordered basis of finite length.

[L1]

Such a normed space is Banach (Every finite-dimensional normed space is Banach).

[L2]

A complete normed subspace is closed in the ambient normed space (A complete normed subspace is closed).

[L3]

The restricted norm on a normed subspace is the ambient one (Normed subspace).

Proof

technique · direct
1.1

By [L3], the hypothesis makes W a normed space in its own right, with an ordered basis of finite length. Therefore [L1] makes W Banach, hence complete for its restricted norm.

L1L3
2.1

Applying [L2] to that complete normed subspace shows that W is closed in V.

Dependency tree · two levels

12 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.
