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.
G to G/H is a smooth principal H-bundle
Statement
Assume . For every closed subgroup , the canonical map is a smooth principal -bundle: it is locally -equivariantly diffeomorphic to .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: , a finite-dimensional real Lie group , and a closed subgroup .
The principal-bundle candidate, including the right-action convention, is fixed. The Axiom of Countable Choice (), The canonical principal-bundle candidate G to G/H.
The quotient map is a surjective submersion, and the closed subgroup has its embedded Lie-subgroup structure. Quotient manifold by a closed Lie subgroup. Cartan closed subgroup theorem.
A submersion admits a smooth local section near each point in its image. The constant-rank theorem for manifolds.
Proof
By [F1], is a surjective submersion. For any , [F2] therefore supplies an open neighborhood of and a smooth section with .
Define It is smooth. It is bijective: every over has , and that element is unique. Its inverse is which is smooth because the second component is a smooth -valued expression whose values lie in the embedded subgroup and, in local product coordinates, is exactly the smooth -coordinate. Thus is a diffeomorphism over .
For , , so is equivariant for the required right action. Translating the identity chart by each supplies such a chart around every coset .
These charts prove the principal-bundle assertion. If , this is the principal -bundle ; if it is the identity bundle. No connectedness, normality, or effectiveness condition is needed. Countable choice is inherited through [A1] and [F1].

34 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.
