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.

A Cauchy filter with a cluster point converges to that point

Statement

A Cauchy filter on a uniform space with a cluster point xx converges to xx.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: A Cauchy filter F\mathcal F and one of its cluster points xx.

[L1]

A cluster point meets every filter member in every neighbourhood, while convergence means containment of every neighbourhood (Convergence and cluster points of a filter on a topological space).

[L2]

Cauchy filters have small members, and symmetric entourages have symmetric square roots (Cauchy filter in a uniform space, Every uniformity has a base of symmetric entourages).

[L3]

For the topology induced by a uniformity, every entourage ball D[x]D[x] is a neighbourhood of xx (The sets containing an entourage ball about each of their points form a topology).

Proof

technique · direct
1.1

Let EE be an entourage and choose symmetric DD with DDED\circ D\subseteq E; choose AFA\in\mathcal F with A×ADA\times A\subseteq D.

L2choose
1.2

The ball D[x]D[x] is a neighbourhood of xx, so it meets AA because xx is a cluster point; fix aAD[x]a\in A\cap D[x].

L1L3choose
2.1

For every bAb\in A, symmetry gives (x,a)D(x,a)\in D and smallness gives (a,b)D(a,b)\in D, hence (x,b)E(x,b)\in E; so AE[x]A\subseteq E[x].

step 1.1step 1.2
3.1

Every entourage ball about xx belongs to F\mathcal F by upward closure, and such balls form a neighbourhood base at xx, so F\mathcal F converges to xx.
