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 fundamental domain tessellates the upper half-plane
Example
The closed tiles , , have union , pairwise disjoint interiors, and any two distinct tiles have empty intersection or meet in a common edge, a half-edge or a vertex; the full edge identifications are on the vertical sides and on the circular arc. The tiling is -invariant and locally finite.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: , its closure , and the action of (The modular group and its action on the upper half-plane).
Every orbit meets ; no two distinct points of are equivalent; two distinct points are equivalent if and only if with , or with ; the points of with nontrivial stabiliser are only (The standard fundamental domain, boundary identifications and elliptic stabilisers, The orbit and stabilizer of a point in a group action).
Each has a neighbourhood meeting only the finitely many stabiliser translates of ; equivalently the action is properly discontinuous and the quotient map is open (Local charts and the Riemann surface structure of a modular quotient).
Verification
Every point of lies in some tile, because its orbit meets [F1]; thus . If two tiles have a common interior point, then with , so are equivalent points of ; by [F1] they are equal and stabilises , which by [F1] has trivial stabiliser, so . Hence distinct tiles have disjoint interiors.
identifies the two vertical sides, and identifies the two halves of the circular side, fixing . To check incidence, translate one of two meeting tiles to . At a boundary point other than the stabiliser is trivial; [F1] then forces the other tile to be , , or , according to the side containing that point. Direct substitution shows that these share respectively a full vertical side or the full circular side. Any other tile can meet only at the three exceptional points. Such an intersection has at most one point: each tile is an intersection of three half-planes bounded by vertical lines or circles orthogonal to the real axis, hence is convex along those real-orthogonal circular or vertical geodesics. Indeed, a real Möbius map sending a given geodesic to the imaginary axis carries each bounding half-plane to one whose intersection with that axis is an interval. Two distinct common points would therefore give a common segment, including a nonexceptional point, which is the already listed side case. Thus every nonempty intersection is a side or a vertex, as asserted.
The tiles are invariant by construction. For local finiteness let be compact and put . If with and , then , so . Therefore such a tile meets through the compact set ; the compact-set finiteness proved in Local charts and the Riemann surface structure of a modular quotient, step 1.1, leaves only finitely many with . For the maps are translations , and the real-part bounds on and leave only finitely many . Thus every compact meets finitely many tiles; a compact disc neighbourhood at each point proves local finiteness.
