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 permutation representation on the left cosets $G / H$

Example

Let $k$ be a field, let $G$ be a finite group, and let $H \leq G$ . Left multiplication on the coset set $G / H$ gives a permutation representation of $G$ on the vector space $k^{(G / H)}$ .

Facts & Assumptions

Given: A field $k$ , a finite group $G$ , and a subgroup $H \leq G$ .

[L1]

The left cosets are the subsets $x H = {x h : h \in H}$ of $G$ (Left and right cosets $g H$ and $H g$ of a subgroup).

[L2]

A finite $G$ -set gives a permutation representation on the free vector space with that basis (The trivial representation, the regular representation, and permutation representations from finite $G$ -sets).

Verification

technique · direct

1.1

For $g, x \in G$ , left multiplication sends the coset $x H$ to $(g x) H$ , so $G$ acts on the finite set $G / H$ by $g \cdot (x H) : = (g x) H$ .

L1given

2.1

By [L2], the induced representation on the basis vectors $e_{x H}$ of $k^{(G / H)}$ is $g \cdot e_{x H} = e_{(g x) H}$ . So the matrix of $g$ in this basis is a permutation matrix recording the induced permutation of the cosets.
