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.
Regular Sequence Permutation Adjacent Swap
Statement
For finite over a Noetherian local ring and a regular sequence in , interchanging two adjacent terms preserves regularity.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The ring, finite module, and regular sequence stated in the claim. The declared prerequisites used here are Regular Sequence On A Module, Local Koszul Acyclicity Iff Regular Sequence, and Koszul Complex Invariant Under Invertible Generator Change.
Proof
The local criterion makes the original regular sequence Koszul-acyclic. Interchanging two adjacent generators is multiplication by an invertible permutation matrix, so invariance under invertible generator change gives an isomorphic Koszul complex for the swapped sequence.
The swapped sequence still lies in and generates the same ideal, so its terminal quotient is the same nonzero module. Applying the reverse direction of the local criterion to its acyclic Koszul complex proves that it is regular.
