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 ring as a one-object Ab-enriched category

Example

Every ring R determines a one-object Ab-enriched category whose single hom-object is the additive group of R and whose enriched composition is multiplication in R.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: A ring R.

[L1]

A one-object preadditive category is the same thing as a ring (A one-object preadditive category is the same thing as a ring).

[L2]

A preadditive category is exactly an Ab-enriched category (Ab-enriched categories are exactly preadditive categories).

Verification

technique · direct
1.1L1given

By [L1], R is the endomorphism ring of a one-object preadditive category.

2.1L2step 1.1∎

Applying [L2] to that preadditive category turns it into a one-object Ab-enriched category, with the additive group of R as hom-object and ring multiplication as enriched composition.

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.
