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.
Stable natural cohomology operation
Definition
Let and be abelian groups, and fix integers and . A cohomology operation of type and degree is a natural transformation
of contravariant functors on based CW complexes. Thus every based map gives the commutative naturality square
A stable natural cohomology operation of degree is a sequence of such operations for which cohomology suspension commutes with : for every based CW complex and every ,
Additivity is not part of this definition. Reduced cohomology is used so that the suspension condition has one uniform form, including degree zero. For the one-point based space every reduced group displayed above is zero, so both naturality and stability hold uniquely; no choice principle is used.
