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: every subnet of a sequence is a subsequence

Statement

FALSE. Every subnet of a sequence is a subsequence.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The discrete topological space N\mathbb N and its identity sequence xn=nx_n=n.

[A1]

A subnet may use any eventually cofinal index map; it need not use a strictly increasing map (Subnet via an eventually cofinal index map).

[A2]

A subsequence of xx is a composite xhx\circ h with h:NNh:\mathbb N\to\mathbb N strictly increasing; such an hh is injective (A strictly increasing index map satisfies nkkn_k \ge k).

1.1

Put ϕ(0)=0\phi(0)=0 and ϕ(k)=k1\phi(k)=k-1 for k1k\ge1, and let yk=xϕ(k)y_k=x_{\phi(k)}. For every nn, all kn+1k\ge n+1 satisfy ϕ(k)=k1n\phi(k)=k-1\ge n, so ϕ\phi is eventually cofinal and yy is a subnet of xx.

A1
2.1

The subnet has y0=y1=0y_0=y_1=0. Every subsequence of the injective identity sequence is injective by [A2], so yy cannot be a subsequence of xx.
