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 induced graded homomorphism of a simplicial map

Definition

Let $f : K \to L$ be a simplicial map. For an oriented simplex $[v_{0}, \dots, v_{n}]$ of $K$ , define $f_{#} [v_{0}, \dots, v_{n}] = {\begin{cases} [f (v_{0}), \dots, f (v_{n})] & if f (v_{0}), \dots, f (v_{n}) are pairwise distinct, \\ 0 & otherwise. \end{cases}$ Extending linearly gives the induced graded homomorphism $f_{#} : C_{n} (K) \to C_{n} (L)$ in each degree. The next lemma proves that these homomorphisms commute with the boundaries and hence form a chain map.

Dependency tree · two levels

5 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.
