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.

Normal subgroup: invariance under conjugation

Definition

Let G be a group and let N≤G be a subgroup (Subgroup). For g∈G, write

gNg−1:={gng−1:n∈N}.

The subgroup N is normal in G when

gNg−1=Nfor every g∈G.

In that case write N⊴G. Equivalently, every inner conjugation of G maps N onto itself. The connection with equality of the left and right cosets of Left and right cosets gH and Hg of a subgroup is proved in Equivalent characterisations of a normal subgroup by conjugates and left and right cosets.

Dependency tree · two levels

6 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.
