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.
Excision for singular homology
Statement
If and , then inclusion induces isomorphisms for every .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: .
Proof
Use the cover : its cover-small quotient complex for consists, modulo small chains in , of precisely the small chains avoiding .
The two inclusions from their small complexes to the corresponding full relative complexes are chain homotopy equivalences. The quotient identification in step 1.1 therefore induces the stated isomorphism.

Dependency tree · two levels
12 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.
