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.
Dirichlet character tables modulo 8 and 12
Example
The moduli and illustrate noncyclic unit groups and the resulting character tables.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The definition of Dirichlet characters and of the principal character (Dirichlet characters modulo q, The principal character modulo q).
Verification
The unit groups and are both isomorphic to . Hence each has four homomorphisms to . For modulus , taking signs independently on the generators and produces the four characters with values on the classes , subject to .
The same construction for modulus uses the generators and , with . Thus all four characters have zeroes on the nonunits and values on . Because every homomorphism from to is determined by the chosen signs on a basis, these are all the Dirichlet characters modulo and .

Dependency tree · one level
2 results within one dependency step of this one, each drawn at its shortest distance from it. An arrow runs from a result to what uses it, so the chart reads left to right and ends at this result, which carries a heavier outline. Every node is a link to that result.
