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.
Inverse image presheaf and inverse image sheaf
Definition
Let be a continuous map, and let be a presheaf on . The inverse-image presheaf
on is defined by
where runs over the open neighbourhoods of in , ordered by reverse inclusion. If , then every neighbourhood of is a neighbourhood of , so there is a natural restriction map .
The inverse image sheaf of a sheaf on is the sheafification of this presheaf:
When is open in and is an open set of with , there is a canonical map
into the colimit class represented by .

Dependency tree · two levels
7 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.
