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 rational map from a normal variety to a proper variety extends in codimension one

Statement

Assume the Axiom of Choice. Let X be a normal integral finite-type k-scheme and Y a proper finite-type k-scheme. The maximal domain of a rational map f:X⇢Y contains every codimension-one point of X. Thus its closed complement has codimension at least two, if nonempty.

Facts & Assumptions

[F1]

A height-one localization of a Noetherian normal domain is a DVR. (Height-one localizations of normal Noetherian domains are DVRs)

[F2]

A rational map gives a morphism from the function-field spectrum, and properness supplies unique extension across a valuation ring. (Rational maps of integral finite-type schemes, Valuative criterion for properness)

Proof

Given: AC, X, Y, f, and a codimension-one point η∈X.

1.1F1F2givenconstruct

By [F1], R=OX,η is a DVR with fraction field k(X). Apply [F2] to extend the generic morphism Spec⁡k(X)→Y uniquely to Spec⁡R→Y. Choose an affine open of Y containing the image of the closed point of this local spectrum; its inverse image contains that closed point and hence is the whole local spectrum.

2.1F1F2step 1.1algebra∎

The chosen target affine ring is finitely generated over k. The images of its finitely many generators in R are regular on a common open neighbourhood of η in X. Its relations hold there because they hold in the function field of the integral X. These elements therefore give a morphism on that neighbourhood agreeing with the rational map generically. Separatedness of Y glues such representatives, so η belongs to the maximal domain. No codimension-one point can occur in its complement; the generic point was already in the domain. AC is inherited from [F1]–[F2].
