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.

The image of a universal net under any map is universal, and a continuous map preserves its limits

Statement

If $x$ is a universal net in $X$ and $f:X\to Y$ is any map, then $f(x)$ is universal. If $f$ is continuous and $x\to p$ , then $f(x)\to f(p)$ .

Facts & Assumptions

Given: A universal net $x:D\to X$ and a map $f:X\to Y$ .

[A1]

$x$ is universal precisely when it eventually enters every subset or its complement (Universal net: eventually in every subset or eventually in its complement).

[L1]

A continuous map preserves every convergent net (A map of topological spaces is continuous at a point if and only if it preserves every net converging to that point).

Proof

technique · direct

1.1

Let $S\subseteq Y$ . By [A1], $x$ is eventually in $f^{-1}[S]$ or in its complement $f^{-1}[Y\setminus S]$ ; respectively, $f(x)$ is eventually in $S$ or in $Y\setminus S$ .

2.1

Thus $f(x)$ is universal.

step 1.1A1

3.1

If $f$ is continuous and $x\to p$ , the second assertion is [L1].
