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.
has Galois group over
Example
The polynomial has Galois group over .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: Eisenstein's criterion (Eisenstein criterion over the integers), the correspondence between conjugate roots and simple-extension embeddings (-embeddings of into an algebraically closed field correspond to the distinct roots of ), and the resolvent formula (The coefficient formula and discriminant of the quartic resolvent).
In the unique-root resolvent branch, irreducibility over the resolvent splitting field distinguishes from (The five-case resolvent classification of an irreducible quartic Galois group).
Verification
After substituting , the polynomial becomes , which is Eisenstein at . Thus the original polynomial is irreducible.
The resolvent formula gives , so it has exactly one rational root.
If is a root, then and . The roots are the distinct elements , all in , so this degree-four simple extension is the splitting field. The embedding is an automorphism and has order four on the exponents modulo ; it therefore generates the full Galois group, which is .
Step 2.1 proves the group directly, while step 1.2 places it in the unique-root branch described by [L1]; the quadratic resolvent splitting field makes the quartic reducible there, as the row requires.
