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.
First isomorphism theorem for groups:
Statement
First isomorphism theorem for groups: .
For every homomorphism , the rule is an isomorphism from onto .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: A group homomorphism .
A homomorphism killing a normal subgroup factors uniquely through the quotient (A homomorphism that kills a normal subgroup factors uniquely through the quotient group).
is normal and is a subgroup (The image of a group homomorphism is a subgroup and its kernel is a normal subgroup).
A homomorphism is injective exactly when its kernel is trivial (A group homomorphism is injective if and only if its kernel is trivial).
Equal images are exactly equal kernel cosets (Two elements have the same image under a homomorphism if and only if they lie in the same coset of its kernel).
An isomorphism is a bijective group homomorphism (Group isomorphisms, automorphisms and the set ).
Proof
By [L2] and [L1], , , is a well-defined homomorphism; [L4] also gives representative independence directly.
Its image is all of , and implies , hence ; therefore its kernel is trivial.
The trivial-kernel conclusion of step 2.1 makes an isomorphism.

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.
