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.
FALSE: a conical limit in an enriched category is just a limit in the underlying category
Statement
A conical limit in an enriched category is nothing more than an ordinary limit in the underlying category.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The conical-limit comparison results from the A page.
A conical enriched limit is stronger than an underlying ordinary limit (A conical enriched limit is stronger than a limit in the underlying category).
Refutation
If the statement were true, then conical enriched limits and underlying ordinary limits would coincide.
A concrete failure occurs for . Let be the strict -category freely generated by objects , a -cell , and a nonidentity -cell . Its underlying category is the walking-arrow category, so is the ordinary product . But a conical product would require as categories. Here is the one-object category with endomorphism monoid , which is not isomorphic to its square. Thus this ordinary product is not conical.
Hence the converse of [L2] fails: an underlying ordinary limit need not satisfy the enriched conical universal property. The displayed statement is false.

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.
