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.

‡ Rests on 3 statements not proved in this library, by way of the results it cites. This item cites no such statement directly; it depends on results that do. The unproved premises it inherits are ‡ Cohen's first model: an infinite Dedekind-finite set of reals, ‡ Sierpiński 1947: the generalised continuum hypothesis implies the Axiom of Choice and ‡ The continuum hypothesis and its generalisation are independent of ZFC. Each is recorded with a citation to the literature and is not established here, because the track that would prove it has not yet been developed in this library. Everything else in this proof is proved here.

One dimension shift along a projective presentation

Example

Assume the Axiom of Dependent Choice.

Let $P$ be supplied projective resolution data on a class $D$ of objects of $A$ , let $F : A \to B$ be additive and right exact, and let $0 \to K \to Q \to A \to 0$ be a short exact sequence in $D$ with $Q$ projective. Then for every $n > 1$ the connecting map of the derived long exact sequence gives an isomorphism $L_{n}^{P} F (A) \tilde{\to} L_{n - 1}^{P} F (K) .$

Facts & Assumptions

Given: A short exact sequence $0 \to K \to Q \to A \to 0$ in $D$ with $Q$ projective and an integer $n > 1$ .

[L1]

The left derived functors form a homological delta functor (Left derived functors form a homological delta functor).

[L2]

Positive left derived functors vanish on projective objects (Positive left derived functors vanish on projective objects).

[L3]

When the outer maps in the exact segment vanish, the connecting map is an isomorphism (Dimension shift for a homological delta functor effaced in the middle).

Verification

technique · direct

1.1

By [L1], the given short exact sequence yields an exact segment $L_{n}^{P} F (Q) \to L_{n}^{P} F (A) \overset{\partial_{n}}{\to} L_{n - 1}^{P} F (K) \to L_{n - 1}^{P} F (Q) .$

L1givenconstruct

2.1

Since $Q \in D$ is projective and $n > 1$ , [L2] gives $L_{n}^{P} F (Q) = L_{n - 1}^{P} F (Q) = 0$ . Therefore [L3] turns the connecting map in step 1.1 into the displayed isomorphism.

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.
