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 standard basis and a universal map from
Example
For a unital ring , the module has standard basis Given in a left -module , the unique homomorphism sending to is
Facts & Assumptions
Given: A unital ring , a left -module , and elements .
is free on its three standard basis vectors, and every vector has a unique coordinate expression (The free module on a set and its standard basis).
A map on a basis extends uniquely to a module homomorphism (Universal property of the free module on a set).
Verification
The displayed formula is additive and -linear by the module axioms, and it sends to .
If is another homomorphism with , then [F1] gives , so linearity gives .
Therefore is the unique universal extension asserted by [L1].
