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.
Under the ultrafilter lemma and the Axiom of Choice, a metrizable space is Čech-complete exactly when it is completely metrizable
Statement
Assume the ultrafilter lemma and the Axiom of Choice. A metrizable space is Čech-complete if and only if it is completely metrizable.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The objects, hypotheses, and choice principles stated above.
Assume the ultrafilter lemma and the Axiom of Choice. Every completely metrizable space is Čech-complete. (Under the ultrafilter lemma and the Axiom of Choice, every completely metrizable space is Čech-complete).
Assume the ultrafilter lemma. Every metrizable Čech-complete space is completely metrizable. (Under the ultrafilter lemma, every metrizable Čech-complete space is completely metrizable).
Proof
The empty space lies in both classes.
For a nonempty metrizable space combine the two preceding implications, retaining metrizability only for the direction from Čech-completeness to complete metrizability.
The preceding construction and implications establish the assertion.
