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 3, 4, and 5
Example
Modulo , , and , the Dirichlet characters are obtained by listing the homomorphisms from to roots of unity and then extending them by zero off the units.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The definition of a Dirichlet character and of the principal character (Dirichlet characters modulo q, The principal character modulo q).
Verification
For , the unit group is , so there are two characters with values on the classes given by and the nonprincipal character . For , the unit group is also , giving and .
For , the unit group is cyclic of order , generated by , so the four characters are determined by . Writing values on the classes gives , , , and . Each table is zero exactly off the units and multiplicative on the unit classes, so these are exactly the Dirichlet characters for the three moduli.

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.
