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.
Borel-Weil-Bott on the projective line for SL2
Example
Assume the Axiom of Choice (The Axiom of Choice). Let with upper triangular Borel and flag variety , and for let be the line bundles identified by Flag line-bundle degree on a minimal-parabolic fiber in the rank-one case. Write for the finite-dimensional irreducible -module of highest weight , for . Then: (i) for , and ; (ii) for , and ; (iii) for , . The Borel-Weil-Bott degree is for , for , and the weight is dot-singular exactly for .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The Axiom of Choice, with upper triangular Borel, , the fundamental weight , , the simple reflection , and the bundles for .
Borel-Weil-Bott: if is singular all cohomology of vanishes, and if is regular with Weyl element , then and all other cohomology vanishes (The Borel-Weil-Bott theorem).
In rank one , so is regular exactly for ; for the Weyl element is with , while for the Weyl element is and with equals : indeed , so (Fundamental weights for a chosen simple root system, The Weyl vector, Length and longest Weyl-group element).
For the unique simple root has , so the minimal parabolic fibre is all of , and under the fixed identification of with the bundle restricts to by the degree computation ; the singular boundary case has all cohomology vanishing (A minimal-parabolic flag projection is a projective-line bundle, Minimal parabolic from one negative simple root, Flag line-bundle degree on a minimal-parabolic fiber, Two-affine projective line and its twists, The sl2 singular weight has no cohomology).
On over : has dimension for and vanishes for ; vanishes for and has dimension for ; all other cohomology vanishes (Cohomology of O(d) on projective space). The Weyl dimension formula for , whose single positive root pairs with by , gives for (The Weyl dimension formula).
Verification
Case : the weight is dominant and is regular with Weyl element by [F2], so [F1] gives and . This matches the dimensions of [F4], since .
Case : is regular and the Weyl element is with , which is dominant because ; by [F1], and all other cohomology vanishes, in particular . The dimensions match those of [F4] because .
Case : the weight has singular, and by [F3] all cohomology of vanishes, so .
The three cases are exhaustive and is singular exactly for ; collecting steps 1.1-1.3 gives the asserted Borel-Weil-Bott description on the projective line, with degree for and degree for .
