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: conformal maps preserve Euclidean lengths
Statement
Conformal maps preserve Euclidean lengths.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The affine map , .
A biholomorphism is conformal in this page's orientation-preserving sense (Biholomorphisms are conformal and have holomorphic inverse).
A map is biholomorphic when it is bijective, holomorphic, and has holomorphic inverse (Biholomorphic maps between complex domains).
Refutation
The map is holomorphic on , bijective, and has holomorphic inverse , so [F2] and [F1] make it conformal.
But the unit tangent vector at is sent to , whose Euclidean length is . Therefore a conformal map need not preserve Euclidean lengths.

Dependency tree · two levels
6 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.
