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.
LCH Urysohn cutoff
Statement
Assuming Dependent Choice as in Urysohn's lemma, under the axiom of dependent choice: in a normal space two disjoint closed sets are separated by a continuous function into , and conversely such a space is normal, if with compact and open in an LCH space , then some satisfies .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: , with compact and open.
Every compact set in an LCH space has an open neighbourhood with and compact . (In a locally compact Hausdorff space every open set containing a point contains an open set containing it whose closure is compact and still inside; such a space is regular)
Under Dependent Choice, disjoint closed subsets of a normal space are separated by a continuous -valued function. (Urysohn's lemma, under the axiom of dependent choice: in a normal space two disjoint closed sets are separated by a continuous function into , and conversely such a space is normal)
Proof
Choose as in [L1]. The compact Hausdorff space is normal; apply [L2] there to and , obtaining on and on .
Extend by off . Continuity of on and its vanishing on the boundary make the extension continuous; it is supported in , is on , and belongs to .
Depends on
- Compact support, $C_c(X)$, and $C_0(X)$
- In a locally compact Hausdorff space every open set containing a point contains an open set containing it whose closure is compact and still inside; such a space is regular
- Urysohn's lemma, under the axiom of dependent choice: in a normal space two disjoint closed sets are separated by a continuous function into $[0,1]$, and conversely such a space is normal

28 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.
