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.

Brauer homomorphism is conjugation equivariant

Statement

For $g \in G$ and $a \in (k G)^{P}$ , write $^{g} a = g a g^{- 1}$ and $^{g} P = g P g^{- 1}$ . Then $^{g} a \in (k G)^{^{g} P}$ and ${Br}_{^{g} P} (^{g} a) =^{g} {Br}_{P} (a)$ .

Facts & Assumptions

Given: $G, P, g, a$ as stated.

[F1]

The map retains centralizer coefficients. (Brauer homomorphism for a p subgroup)

Proof

technique · direct

1.1

For $p \in P$ , conjugating $^{g} a$ by $g p g^{- 1}$ gives $g p a p^{- 1} g^{- 1} = g a g^{- 1}$ , proving the required fixed-algebra membership. Also $x \in C_{G} (P)$ holds exactly when $g x g^{- 1} \in C_{G} (g P g^{- 1})$ , by conjugating each commutation equation.

2.1

Writing $a = \sum_{x} a_{x} x$ , either order of conjugation and truncation yields $\sum_{x \in C_{G} (P)} a_{x} g x g^{- 1}$ . This is the required equality; no coefficient is changed.

Dependency tree · two levels

2 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.
