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.
Lie-group homomorphism, isomorphism, and automorphism
Definition
Let and be Lie groups in the sense of Lie group. A Lie-group homomorphism is a group homomorphism in the sense of Monoid homomorphism and group homomorphism that is also smooth. Thus
for all , while preservation of identity and inverses follows from the group-homomorphism laws.
A Lie-group isomorphism is a bijective Lie-group homomorphism whose inverse is smooth. Its set-theoretic inverse is automatically a group homomorphism by The inverse of a bijective group homomorphism is a group homomorphism, so the smoothness clause makes that inverse a Lie-group homomorphism as well. A Lie-group automorphism is a Lie-group isomorphism from to itself.
Smoothness is part of the homomorphism definition on this page. The separate automatic-regularity theorem for merely continuous group homomorphisms is not being assumed. These definitions apply without alteration in dimensions zero and one. Their Lie-group inputs are nonempty and boundaryless by the page convention, and the definitions use neither nondegeneracy nor any choice principle.

11 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.
