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.

Explicit normal-framed collapse of an equatorial sphere

Example

For Sn={(x,0)}⊂Sn+1⊂Rn+1×R, use its upward unit normal framing and 0<a<1. An explicit collapse to S+n∧S1 is c(1−t2 x,t)=[x,t/a](∣t∣<a),c=∗(∣t∣≥a). Here S1=[−1,1]/{−1,1}. Projecting the first smash factor by S+n→S0 gives the framed collapse to S1.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: n≥0, the standard equator and the specified upward normal framing.

[F1]

Pontryagin–Thom collapse with specified normal data fixes the compatible tube and collapse.

[F2]

Trivial Thom spaces as suspension smash products identifies its trivial line target.

Verification

1.1F1given

The chart Φ(x,t)=(1−t2x,t) is a diffeomorphism onto the band ∣t∣<1. Its derivative in the normal direction at t=0 is (0,1), so it respects exactly the specified framing. The metric disk of radius a is its closed band, and [F1] gives the displayed formula.

2.1F2step 1.1∎

The two band boundaries go to the circle basepoint, so the outside constant formula pastes continuously. By [F2] its target is S+n∧S1. The continuous based map S+n→S0 sends the whole equator to the nonbasepoint; smashing it with the identity produces the claimed sphere-valued framed collapse. For n=0 the same formula has two band components and remains valid.
