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.
Green correspondence for a trivial intersection subgroup
Example
Assume AC. Let be finite, a field of characteristic , a nontrivial Sylow -subgroup, and . Assume that is a trivial-intersection subgroup: whenever . If , Green correspondence matches all nonprojective indecomposable finite-dimensional - and -modules, and both error modules are projective. If , the correspondence is the identity; its restriction to nonprojective modules is also the identity.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: This TI Sylow subgroup and normalizer.
AC (The Axiom of Choice) is retained for the inherited decomposition argument and the general relative-/projective comparison.
The full Green theorem gives inverse maps on -vertex classes and the indicated error families (Green correspondence with exceptional families).
Exceptional containment and admissibility have the properties in Green exceptional family containment and fusion.
The relative trace criterion holds (Higman's criterion characterizes relative projectivity through the relative trace idempotent test).
Under AC, relative -projectivity is equivalent to projectivity (A module is relatively H-projective when it is a direct summand of one induced from H).
Vertices exist and are conjugate (Vertices exist for indecomposable modules, are conjugate in G, and sources are conjugate by the appropriate normalizer).
A vertex of a relatively -projective module lies in a conjugate of (Relative projectivity mackey intersections for finite modules).
Verification
Suppose . For every , TI gives . Also is a -subgroup of . Since , the image of in has order a power of dividing , which is prime to . These divisibilities follow by partitioning each finite group into cosets of the relevant subgroup. Hence that image is trivial and . It follows that . As is nonempty, we obtain exactly . Their excluded conjugate-containment class consists only of the trivial subgroup, so .
For or , the index is invertible in . On any -module , the relative trace of is , since all its conjugates are the same scalar identity. F3 makes every such module relatively -projective. For nonzero indecomposable , F5 and F6 then permit a vertex lying inside .
Under A1 and F4, an indecomposable module with vertex is projective. Conversely a projective indecomposable is relatively -projective, so itself is a minimal inducing -subgroup, hence a vertex. Thus having a nontrivial vertex is equivalent to being nonprojective. Combining 1.1–1.2, the full -vertex domains in F1 are exactly the nonprojective indecomposables on both sides. The full theorem, not merely its fixed-P corollary, therefore gives the asserted bijection.
The errors in F1 are relatively -projective by 1.1. Each of their finitely many indecomposable summands is projective by F4, hence the errors are projective: a finite sum of projectives lifts maps across surjections by lifting each component separately. If , the exceptional families instead are empty, both errors vanish and F1 gives the identity correspondence. It restricts to the identity on nonprojective modules. Zero errors are allowed, but zero is outside the indecomposable domains. We make no assertion that the projective summands of an error are mutually isomorphic.
