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.
A planar segment has Hausdorff measure equal to length
Example
Assume the Axiom of Countable Choice. For , the segment satisfies
Its dimension is one when and zero when .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The objects, conventions, and hypotheses in the statement above.
Under the standing Countable Choice hypothesis, isometries preserve Hausdorff measure, and ambient and subspace outer values agree. Similarities scale Hausdorff measure exactly
Under the standing Countable Choice hypothesis, hausdorff one-measure on the line equals Lebesgue outer measure. One-dimensional Hausdorff measure on the line is Lebesgue outer measure
Finite positive measure at exponent one gives dimension one. Hausdorff dimension is the unique critical exponent
Under the standing Countable Choice hypothesis, every at most countable set has dimension zero. Hausdorff dimension is monotone and countably stable
Verification
If , the map is an isometry from onto , since the distance between its images is . Hence the segment has equal to the interval length .
For this value is finite and positive, so the dimension is one. If , the segment is the singleton : its own singleton cover costs zero at exponent one and it is countable, giving dimension zero. Both closed endpoints are present in the parametrisation.

Dependency tree · two levels
12 results within two dependency steps 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.
