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.
Every function from discrete to extends uniquely to
Example
For the discrete space , every function extends uniquely to every Stone–Čech compactification .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: A function and a Stone–Čech compactification .
Every map with discrete domain is continuous (The discrete, indiscrete, cofinite, cocountable, particular-point and Sierpinski topologies).
The interval is compact and Hausdorff (Heine-Borel by bisection: every closed bounded interval is compact, Distinct points of a metric space have disjoint balls around them).
Verification
The map is continuous by [L1]. By [L2], the interval is compact Hausdorff, so the extension and uniqueness clause of The Stone–Čech compactification by its compact-Hausdorff extension property gives a unique continuous with .
This is the asserted extension.
