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.
Coderivations of the reduced graded symmetric coalgebra are determined by corestrictions
Statement
Let and be as in Reduced graded symmetric coalgebra with its shuffle coproduct. For any family of degree graded-symmetric maps , , the formula
defines a degree coderivation of . It is the unique such coderivation whose projection to on is . For , the final tail is empty and the term means just ; in this case contains only the identity permutation.
Here a degree-one coderivation is a linear map that satisfies
where the tensor map uses the Koszul sign rule. The sum defining is finite on each input because .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: A characteristic-zero graded vector space , its reduced shuffle coalgebra, and graded-symmetric degree-one maps .
Reduced graded symmetric coalgebra with its shuffle coproduct: the coproduct is a sum over unshuffles with Koszul signs, and its primitive subspace is by The graded shuffle coproduct is coassociative, cocommutative, and conilpotent.
Koszul sign rule for graded tensor products and permutations: composing graded tensor maps and reordering homogeneous factors multiplies their Koszul signs.
Proof
The formula is well-defined on the graded-symmetric quotient: replacing a representative by an adjacent graded swap bijects the unshuffle summands, and the Koszul sign in [F2] gives the same graded-symmetric output. Each term is finite because its consumed arity is at most the input length.
In , choose the input labels consumed by one , then split the output and the unused labels into two nonempty ordered blocks. The same terms occur in by first splitting the original labels into those two blocks and applying to the block containing the chosen inputs. These are the same ordered three-block decompositions; their signs agree by [F2], including the crossing sign from . Thus the formula satisfies the coderivation identity.
Let be another coderivation with the same corestrictions and put . We prove by induction on input length that . On length one, is its zero corestriction. Assume on all lengths below . For , every tensor factor in has length below ; the coderivation identity therefore gives . Hence is primitive.
By [F1], primitive elements are exactly , and the length-one projection of is zero because and have the same corestrictions. Thus . This completes the induction for every finite length, so .
