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 strict C prime(1/6) presentation with no proper-power relators defines a torsion-free group
Example
The presentation
is a strict presentation with no proper-power relator, so is torsion-free.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The displayed one-relator presentation.
A presentation with no proper-power relators defines a torsion-free group (A C prime(1/6) presentation with no proper-power relators defines a torsion-free group).
Verification
The symmetrised relator set has no nontrivial pieces, because distinct cyclic conjugates start with distinct letters. So the condition holds vacuously. The relator is not a proper power because its letters are all distinct in cyclic order.
Apply [L1] to the presentation from step 1.1. Therefore the group is torsion-free.

Dependency tree · two levels
3 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.
