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.

Atomless generic filters are not in the ground model

Statement

In ZF, let M be a transitive ZF model containing an atomless forcing preorder P and its order: every condition has two incompatible stronger conditions. If G is M-generic then GM. The atomless hypothesis cannot simply be omitted.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: ZF. Complement of a filter is dense in atomless forcing because two incompatible refinements cannot both be in the filter; if G were ground-model, its complement would contradict genericity. Singleton forcing checks the missing-hypothesis boundary.

[F1]

Dense open sets and generic filters over a model: Generic filters meet ground dense sets, and internal directedness makes any two filter conditions compatible.

Proof

1.1

For any filter G on atomless P, PG is dense. Given p, choose two incompatible refinements q,r of p. They cannot both be in G, since internal directedness would give a common stronger condition. At least one therefore lies in PG below p. This is one finite existential argument for each p, not a simultaneous choice function.

2.1

If G were in M, internal Separation would make the actual set D=PG an element of M. Step 1.1 makes D dense, while genericity would require GD, impossible by its definition. Thus G is not in M. For singleton forcing, its unique filter P belongs to M and meets every dense set, exhibiting the failure when atomlessness is removed.

Dependency tree · two levels

2 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.
