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.
splits as the product of its two local Artinian factors
Example
The ring decomposes as
The two factors are local Artinian rings, and the two prime ideals of are the pullbacks of the two coordinate prime ideals.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The ring .
Verification
The ideals and of are comaximal, so Chinese remainder theorem for pairwise comaximal ideals gives . The first factor is a field, hence local, and the second has unique proper nonzero ideal , so it is also local.
Let be a prime ideal of . Since , primality forces or . In the first case every lies in , so for an ideal of ; primality then forces . In the second case . Under the inverse of the isomorphism in step 1.1, these two primes pull back to and in .
So is exhibited concretely as the product of its two local Artinian factors and , and its two prime ideals are exactly the two coordinate pullbacks found in step 2.1.
