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.

Quotient module M/N with scalar multiplication on additive cosets

Definition

Let N≤M be a submodule of a left R-module. Since the additive group of M is abelian, N is normal, so the additive quotient group M/N consists of the cosets m+N. Its proposed scalar action is

r(m+N):=rm+N.

The well-definedness and module laws are established in The quotient action is well defined and makes M/N a module ↗. The resulting module is the quotient module M/N.

Dependency tree · two levels

9 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.
