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 matrix category is the finite biproduct completion of a ring

Theorem A one-object preadditive category is the same thing as a ring lets us read a ring R as a one-object preadditive category. Definition The matrix category over a ring then adjoins formal finite direct sums of that one object, recorded as the natural numbers, and theorem The matrix category is fully faithful in modules and, with chosen bases, equivalent to finite free modules identifies the result with the finitely generated free R-modules. In that sense, MatR is the finite-biproduct completion of R.

Dependency tree · two levels

15 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.
