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 map carries the Cantor set onto a compact set of Lebesgue measure inside
Example
Let . The gap of the Cantor set is sent to , because is constant there with value , while and . The A-page lemmas show that is a homeomorphism from onto and that is a compact set of Lebesgue measure .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The Cantor function and the map .
is a homeomorphism from onto (The map is a homeomorphism from onto ).
The set is compact and has Lebesgue measure (The homeomorphism sends the Cantor set onto a compact set of Lebesgue measure ).
The Cantor function is constant on every removed gap, and on that constant value is (The Cantor function is well defined, satisfies whenever , is surjective onto , and is constant on every interval removed from the Cantor set).
Verification
Step [L3] gives for , so , , and . Also and .
These computations sit inside the global picture from [L1] and [L2]: the map is a homeomorphism of the whole interval, and the image of the Cantor set itself is the compact measure-one set obtained by removing the translated gaps.
Depends on
- The map $x \mapsto x + c(x)$ is a homeomorphism from $[0,1]$ onto $[0,2]$
- The homeomorphism $x \mapsto x + c(x)$ sends the Cantor set onto a compact set of Lebesgue measure $1$
- The Cantor function is well defined, satisfies $c(x) \le c(y)$ whenever $x \le y$, is surjective onto $[0,1]$, and is constant on every interval removed from the Cantor set

Dependency tree · two levels
51 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.
