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.
The Borel sigma-algebra of the Cantor set is the trace of the real Borel sigma-algebra
Example
For the Cantor middle-thirds set with its subspace topology,
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The Cantor middle-thirds set with the subspace topology inherited from .
The Cantor middle-thirds set is (The Cantor middle-thirds set as the intersection of the sets obtained by removing open middle thirds).
The Borel sigma-algebra of a subspace is the trace of the ambient Borel sigma-algebra (The Borel sigma-algebra of a subspace is the trace of the ambient Borel sigma-algebra).
Verification
The description in [L1] makes a specified subset of , equipped here with the subspace topology.
The subspace theorem [L2] applies to this inclusion .
Therefore [L2] gives , as claimed.
