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.
Pullback carries closed forms to closed forms and exact forms to exact forms
Statement
Let be smooth and let be a differential form on . If , then ; if for a differential form on , then .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The manifolds, forms, vector fields, maps, and coordinates explicitly named in the statement.
Exterior differentiation commutes with pullback by a smooth map (The exterior derivative commutes with pullback).
Proof
Naturality gives , so a closed form pulls back to a closed form.
If , the same equality applied to reads , proving exactness preservation.

Dependency tree · two levels
4 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.
