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.
An abelian scheme is the Neron model of its generic fibre
Statement
Assume AC and DC. Let be a Dedekind scheme with function field , and let be an abelian scheme (Abelian schemes over a base). Then is a Neron model (Neron models, the Neron mapping property and weak Neron models) of its generic fibre : for every smooth -scheme and every -morphism there is a unique -morphism extending .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: AC and DC, a Dedekind scheme with function field , an abelian scheme , a smooth -scheme , and a -morphism .
For a smooth finite-type -scheme , every -morphism extends uniquely to (K-morphisms from smooth models into abelian schemes extend uniquely).
A smooth morphism is locally of finite presentation; over the locally Noetherian scheme , every point of a smooth -scheme has an open neighbourhood of finite type over (Smooth morphism of schemes, Locally Noetherian and Noetherian schemes).
Two -morphisms from a flat -scheme to a separated -scheme agreeing on the generic fibre are equal. Indeed their equalizer is closed; on a chart over an affine integral open , its ideal vanishes after tensoring with . Flatness makes the chart ring -torsion-free, so that ideal is zero. This argument uses the closed diagonal (Separated morphism of schemes) and generic localization (Scheme-theoretic fibre); it does not require the generic fibre to be open.
Proof
First suppose is of finite type over . Then [F1] gives the unique extension of . This proves the mapping property for finite-type smooth test schemes.
For an arbitrary smooth -scheme , use [F2] to cover it by open subschemes of finite type over . Apply step 1.1 to each restriction , obtaining . On an overlap , the maps agree on the schematically dense generic fibre, so they agree everywhere by [F3]. The glue to an -morphism extending . The same density and separatedness give uniqueness. Thus satisfies the full Neron mapping property; the weak property is a consequence, and no group law on a general model is constructed.

48 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.
