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.
The tail filter of a net
Definition
For a net , put and . This is a filter base: it is nonempty, each contains , and if then . Its generated filter The upward closure of a filter base is the smallest filter containing it is the tail filter of :
Thus exactly when the net is eventually in . The preceding filter-base verification makes this a well-defined filter in the sense of Filter on a set.
Depends on
Used by
- Assuming the ultrafilter lemma, a free ultrafilter on ℕ converges to the added point in the one-point convergent-sequence space Example
- A net and its tail filter have the same limits and cluster points Lemma
- Assuming the ultrafilter lemma, every net has a universal subnet Lemma
- A net is universal exactly when its tail filter is an ultrafilter, and the canonical net of an ultrafilter is universal Theorem
