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.

Can a smooth chart turn a boundary point into an interior point?

Statement

False. A smooth boundary-chart transition cannot send a face point to a relative-interior point.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: Two compatible boundary charts whose overlap transition is f:UV, and a face point pU.

[L1]

A smooth diffeomorphism between relatively open half-space sets maps face points to face points (Smooth invariance of the manifold boundary).

Refutation

technique · direct
1.1

Compatibility of the two charts makes f a smooth half-space diffeomorphism.

given
2.1

By [L1], f(p) is a face point, not a relative-interior point. Thus no smooth boundary-chart transition can make the proposed change.

Dependency tree · two levels

5 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.
