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 two-dimensional sl2 module extends to the enveloping algebra

Example

Let V=C2 and let sl2(C) be the Lie algebra of traceless 2×2 complex matrices with commutator bracket. The standard action is matrix multiplication. In the usual basis, put E=(0100),F=(0010),H=(100−1).

Facts & Assumptions

Given: V=C2, the subspace sl2(C) of End⁡C(V) consisting of trace-zero matrices, and the commutator bracket [A,B]=AB−BA.

[F1]

Lie algebras over a field: a Lie algebra is a vector space with a bilinear alternating bracket satisfying the Jacobi identity.

[F2]

Representations of Lie algebras: End⁡k(V) with commutator is a Lie algebra, and a representation is a Lie-algebra homomorphism into it.

[F3]

Lie representations are U(g)-modules: restriction along g→U(g) and extension by the enveloping-algebra universal property give mutually inverse correspondences between Lie representations and scalar-compatible unital left U(g)-modules.

Verification

1.1givenF1F2algebra

The matrices E,F,H are linearly independent and every trace-zero matrix is aH+bE+cF for unique a,b,c∈C. Direct multiplication gives [H,E]=2E, [H,F]=−2F, and [E,F]=H. By bilinearity the span is closed under commutators, and it inherits alternation and Jacobi from End⁡C(V); hence it is the stated Lie algebra.

2.1givenF2step 1.1

The inclusion ρ:sl2(C)↪End⁡C(V) is linear and preserves the bracket because both brackets are the same matrix commutator. Thus V is a Lie-algebra representation.

3.1givenF3step 2.1∎

By [F3], this representation extends uniquely to a scalar-compatible unital left U(sl2(C))-module on V. This uses neither PBW nor injectivity of the canonical map into the enveloping algebra.
