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.
Open subspaces and residual subspaces of Baire spaces are Baire
Statement
Every open subspace of a Baire space is Baire. Every residual subspace of a Baire space, with its subspace topology, is Baire.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The objects, hypotheses, and choice principles stated above.
For a topological space , the following are equivalent: every countable intersection of dense open sets is dense; every countable union of closed sets with empty interior has empty interior; no nonempty open subset is meagre in ; and every residual subset meets every nonempty open set. The equivalence includes the empty space. (Equivalent forms of the Baire property).
For every topological space , the meagre subsets of contain , are closed under taking subsets, and are closed under countable unions. (The meagre subsets of a topological space form a sigma-ideal).
Let be a topological space (def-topological-space) and let . The subspace topology (also relative topology) on is the family of traces on of the open sets of . The pair is a subspace of . A subset of that lies in is said to be open in , and relatively open where the ambient space needs emphasis. (Subspace topology: the traces of the open sets, its closed sets and its bases, the continuity of the inclusion, and the characteristic property of a map into a subspace).
Proof
For an open subspace, translate dense-open tests into the ambient open set.
For a residual subspace, first note it is dense unless the ambient space is empty, show a relatively nowhere dense set is ambiently nowhere dense, and use the sigma-ideal and nonmeagre-open characterisation.
The preceding construction and implications establish the assertion.
