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 minimal Cauchy filters associated to points define a uniformly continuous dense canonical map
Statement
The map sending to the minimal Cauchy filter associated to its principal filter is uniformly continuous and has dense image. For every , every member of contains .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: A uniform space and its minimal-Cauchy-filter space .
Principal filters are Cauchy and have associated minimal Cauchy filters (Every Cauchy filter canonically determines a unique minimal Cauchy filter coarser than it).
The standard relations are entourages on (The standard entourages on minimal Cauchy filters form a separated uniformity).
Entourage balls describe the induced topology and density is closure equal to the whole space (The sets containing an entourage ball about each of their points form a topology, Interior, closure, boundary, exterior, derived set and isolated point in a topological space).
Symmetric entourages with prescribed finite-composite control may be chosen inside any entourage (Every uniformity has a base of symmetric entourages).
Proof
Define to be the minimal filter associated to the principal filter at . Since , every member of contains .
Let be a basic neighbourhood. Choose a symmetric with , a -small , and . The point filter contains , and , so . Thus every basic neighbourhood meets .
Given a target basic entourage , choose a symmetric with . If , then and , while . Hence , which proves uniform continuity.
Thus every neighbourhood meets , so its closure is all of and the image is dense.
