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.

An $H_{5}$ -overlap class and its terminal quotient

Example

Fix a comb block $B_{i}$ whose induced graph consists of two labeled copies of $H_{5}$ sharing precisely their rim vertex $v_{1}$ , with no other cross edges.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The comb block in the Example.

[F1]

Two vertices in $X_{i}$ are related when a finite vertex sequence joins them with each consecutive pair contained in one induced $H_{5}$ inside $B_{i}$ (The $H_{5}$ -overlap-chain relation in one comb block).

Proof

technique · direct

1.1F1

Every vertex of $B_{i}$ belongs to one of the two induced copies, so $X_{i} = B_{i}$ . For any $d, d^{'} \in B_{i}$ , the vertex sequence $d, v_{1}, d^{'}$ has each consecutive pair in one of those copies; omit repeated consecutive vertices if necessary. Thus [F1] gives $d \sim_{H_{5}} d^{'}$ , and $B_{i}$ is the unique overlap class.

2.1step 1.1

The initial overlap blockade is therefore $(B_{i})$ . There is no pair of distinct blocks, so it is pure vacuously. Its mixed-block reachability relation has just the singleton class ${B_{i}}$ ; replacing that class by its union returns $(B_{i})$ . Every iterate is consequently $(B_{i})$ , already terminal at the first stage.

3.1step 2.1∎

This gives the claimed overlap class and terminal quotient.
