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.

The quotient that identifies points indistinguishable by a real function algebra

Definition

Let X be a compact Hausdorff space and let AC(X,R) be a real function algebra in the sense of Unital, point-separating, and nowhere-vanishing real function algebras on a compact Hausdorff space. Define a relation on X by xAyf(x)=f(y) for every fA.

This is an equivalence relation: equality gives reflexivity, symmetry of equality gives symmetry, and transitivity follows by applying transitivity of equality to f(x)=f(y) and f(y)=f(z) for each fA. The indistinguishability quotient of X by A is YA:=X/A, equipped with the quotient topology of the canonical surjection qA:XYA,qA(x)=[x]A, as defined in The quotient topology of a surjection, quotient maps, saturated sets, and the quotient of a space by an equivalence relation with its canonical projection. Thus two points have the same image under qA exactly when no member of A distinguishes them.
