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.
A family of continuous unit-interval-valued functions that separates points from closed sets
Definition
Let be a topological space. A family of continuous maps (Continuity of a map of topological spaces at a point and globally, Intervals of : the nine order-convex forms, nondegeneracy, and length) separates points from closed sets when both conditions hold:
- for every distinct , some has ; and
- for every closed and every , some satisfies and .
The empty family has these properties precisely when . Indeed, if , the closed set makes clause 2 demand a member of the family. Thus a one-point space still needs a separating function for its point and the empty closed set; no coordinate is silently selected in either case.
