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.
The elliptic points of the modular group and their images under j
Example
In there are exactly two elliptic classes: the class of , with stabiliser of order generated by , and the class of , with stabiliser of order generated by ; every other stabiliser is trivial. The corresponding orbifold points have orders and ; the quotient map has local degrees at and at , and , .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The action of on with , and the closure of the standard fundamental domain (The standard fundamental domain, boundary identifications and elliptic stabilisers); the quotient map with its local charts at the elliptic points, where it is in a centred coordinate (Local charts and the Riemann surface structure of a modular quotient, The j-invariant uniformizes X(1)); the modular function with nonvanishing on (The modular discriminant and the j-invariant).
Every -orbit meets ; the only points of with nontrivial -stabiliser are , and , with of order , of order and of order , while every other point of has trivial stabiliser; (The standard fundamental domain, boundary identifications and elliptic stabilisers, Local charts and the Riemann surface structure of a modular quotient).
In the quotient chart at an elliptic point a generator of the stabiliser acts by and becomes the map ; for this is at and at and , so has local degree at and at and , representatives of the two elliptic classes; the same local degrees hold at all their modular translates (Local charts and the Riemann surface structure of a modular quotient, The j-invariant uniformizes X(1)).
has a simple zero at the class of and no other zeros, and has a simple zero at the class of and no other zeros; in particular , , and (The zeros of E4 and E6 at the elliptic points).
has no zeros on and is a holomorphic -invariant function with and (The modular discriminant and the j-invariant).
Verification
Exactly two elliptic classes. Let have nontrivial stabiliser in . By [F1] there is with , and is then nontrivial, so by [F1]. Since , every point with nontrivial stabiliser is -equivalent to or to . The classes of and are distinct: if , then conjugation would give , a group of order , whereas has order by [F1]. So there are exactly two elliptic classes, the classes of and , and their stabilisers are of orders and generated by and ; every point outside these two classes has trivial stabiliser, since a point with nontrivial stabiliser is equivalent to or and all other points of have trivial stabiliser [F1].
By [F2], the quotient map has local degree at and at and . For every , and is a biholomorphism, so the local degree is unchanged at or . Thus its ramification locus is exactly , with local degrees and respectively; outside these orbits the stabiliser is trivial by 1.1 and the quotient chart is a local inverse of , giving degree .
Special values. At , [F3] gives and , so and . At , [F3] gives , so , the denominator being nonzero by [F4]; the same two values are recorded in [F4].
