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 nonzero d two differential in a small filtered complex

Example

There is a finite filtered complex with d0=d1=0 and d2 nonzero. Take C2=Zx, C1=Zy and dx=y, with filtration degrees 2 for x and 0 for y, and all other terms zero. Then d2:E2,02E0,12 is the identity ℤ→ℤ.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The displayed complex with generator filtration levels 2 and 0.

[F1]

Pages are computed from Ar and the specified denominators (R page of the spectral sequence of a filtered complex).

[F3]

Finite filtrations converge to image-filtered homology (Bounded filtered complex spectral sequence abuts to filtered homology).

[F4]

Abelian-group kernels and quotients compute the homology (Abelian-group model for spectral-sequence computations).

1.1

The filtration is by subcomplexes because d sends filtration 2 into filtration 0. E0 has ℤx at (2,0) and ℤy at (0,1). d0=0 since the only nonzero chain differential drops filtration. For r=1 and r=2 the x numerator is ℤx (dx lies in F1C1=F0C1=Zy) and its denominator is zero. The y denominator is zero since its potential sources F0C2 and F1C2 are zero. Thus E1=E2 have the same two terms.

2.1

The possible d1 from x targets (1,0), a zero group; all d1 vanish. At r=2, [F2] instead gives [x]↦[y], an isomorphism between the two nonzero terms, whose inverse sends [y] to [x]. In particular the generator has nonzero image. At r=3 the x numerator is zero because F1C1=0, and the y denominator contains d(F2C2)=Zy. All terms on E3 and later are zero.

3.1

The unfiltered complex has kernel and cokernel of the identity equal to zero, so all Hn(C)=0. Its image filtration and every associated graded homology piece are zero, exactly matching E under [F3].
