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.

regular local ring satisfies r one

Statement

Assume the Axiom of Choice (The Axiom of Choice). Every regular local ring satisfies (R1). Its height-zero localizations are fields, and its height-one localizations are DVRs.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The objects and hypotheses in the statement. We work with the Axiom of Choice; cited dependent-choice and resolution-existence hypotheses are retained.

[F1]

serre r k and s k conditions: For a commutative Noetherian ring R and an integer j≥0, condition (Rj) means that Rp is regular whenever ht⁡p≤j. Condition (Sj) means that depth⁡Rp≥min⁡{j,dim⁡Rp} for every prime p. A finite module M satisfies (Sj) if depth⁡RpMp≥min⁡{j,dim⁡Supp⁡RpMp} for every prime in its support. Outside the support the condition is vacuous, consistent with depth of the zero module being +∞ and the empty support having no nonnegative dimension. Thus the zero module satisfies all (Sj) conditions, and the zero ring satisfies both families vacuously.

[F2]

localisations of regular local rings are regular: Every prime localization Rp of a regular local ring R is regular, and edim⁡Rp=ht⁡p.

[F3]

one dimensional regular local rings are dvrs: A nonzero Noetherian local ring of dimension one is regular if and only if it is a discrete valuation ring. Fields are excluded from the term DVR.

[F4]

embedding dimension is minimal maximal ideal generator number: For a nonzero Noetherian local ring (R,m,k), edim⁡R is the least number of generators of m.

Proof

1.1F2F1given

Under the assumed Axiom of Choice, the homological criterion used in [F2] applies. Every prime localization is regular, and its dimension is the height of the prime. Thus at all heights at most one it is regular, which is precisely (R1).

2.1F3F2F4step 1.1∎

At height one the DVR equivalence applies. At height zero regularity makes the cotangent space zero; the generator-number formula makes the maximal ideal zero, hence the local ring is a field.
