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.
Two families generate the same sigma-algebra when each lies in the sigma-algebra generated by the other
Statement
Let . If
then .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: Families satisfying the two displayed inclusions.
Generated sigma-algebras are monotone in their generators and idempotent (Generated sigma-algebras are monotone in their generators and idempotent).
Proof
From , monotonicity and idempotence in [L1] give .
Interchanging and gives ; together with step 1.1 this proves equality.

Dependency tree · two levels
2 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.
