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 monotone class generated by an algebra is closed under finite intersections
Statement
If is an algebra on , then is closed under binary intersections.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: An algebra on and .
The family is the smallest monotone class containing (The generated monotone class exists and is minimal).
Every member of intersects every member of in a member of (Every member of the generated monotone class intersects every original algebra member inside the generated class).
Proof
Fix and put . As before, intersection with commutes with increasing unions and decreasing intersections, so is a monotone class. By symmetry of intersection and [L2], every lies in .
Minimality in [L1] gives . Since was arbitrary, for all .
