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 particular Yoneda end and the enriched functor category have different size requirements

Remark

The enriched end in Strong enriched Yoneda lemma as a particular end is a single object with a universal enriched wedge. By contrast, Functor category [C,D] forms an ordinary category of set-coded functors and ordinary natural transformations when its source is small; it neither defines enriched hom-objects nor imposes completeness hypotheses on the base.

When the enriched functor category [A,V] is formed, its hom-object between two enriched functors F and G is an enriched end of the objects [FA,GA]. Forming the whole enriched functor category therefore asks for such an end for every pair (F,G), whereas the strong Yoneda theorem directly exhibits one particular end whether or not all of those other ends exist.

So two claims must be kept separate:

  • the weak and strong enriched Yoneda lemmas identify a specific object or set attached to a single representable functor;
  • the existence of the entire enriched functor category requires all of its enriched hom-objects to exist, commonly under additional smallness and completeness hypotheses.

This page proves only the former. Even for the set-object sources used here, one particular Yoneda end does not by itself construct every hom-object of a full enriched functor category.

10 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.
