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.
Projective modules and the lifting property
Definition
A left -module is projective if it has the lifting property for epimorphisms: whenever is a surjective module homomorphism and is a module homomorphism, there exists a module homomorphism such that (Module homomorphism and isomorphism, kernel, image and cokernel, Injection, surjection, bijection).
The lift need not be unique. Projectivity asks for a lift in every such square.

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.
