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.
One BMW generator takes three scalar values across representations
Example
In take , , , and , which satisfies . There are three one-dimensional representations with , , and . Thus the generator takes all three distinct roots of its cubic across these representations. The third representation shows in the full algebra, so the quotient by is proper; the Hecke quotient imposes the quadratic that fails in the third representation.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The BMW presentation from BMW algebra in a fixed Kauffman skein convention and the cubic/quotient relation from The BMW braid generators satisfy a cubic, with a Hecke quotient.
BMW algebra in a fixed Kauffman skein convention: for , the defining relations are the loop, skein, untwisting, and inverse relations for .
The BMW braid generators satisfy a cubic, with a Hecke quotient: the full generator satisfies the cubic, while setting gives the Hecke quadratic.
Verification
For and , and the loop and untwisting relations hold because . For , , , and . Every is invertible, and BMW has no adjacent-index relations, so these are valid one-dimensional representations.
The three representations evaluate at the distinct numbers . Since the third sends to , the ideal generated by is nonzero, so the canonical map to the quotient by that ideal is not injective. The quadratic evaluates to in the third representation, whereas setting forces that quadratic by [F2].

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.
