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.

Hereditarily symmetric interpretations form a transitive ZF model

Statement

For a transitive ZF ground model M, symmetric system and M-generic G0, N=HSFG0 is a transitive ZF model with MNM[G0]. No Choice hypothesis is required.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The stated ZF ground model, symmetric system, and generic.

[F2]

Symmetry lemma for forcing automorphisms controls invariant definable subnames.

[F3]

Generic extensions satisfy ZF and preserve ground-model Choice gives M[G0]ZF using its choice-free branch.

[F4]

Forcing theorem supplies the truth lemma used to evaluate invariant subnames.

Proof

1.1

Values of HS names lie in M[G0], while hereditary closure says that every member of such a value has an HS subname. Hence MNM[G0] and N is transitive.

1.2

The class is almost universal relative to the ambient transitive ZF extension M[G0], without choosing simultaneous HS representatives. Let x˙M name an ambient set xN. For each (τ,p)dom(x˙)×P, define r(τ,p) to be the least ordinal rank of an HS name σ for which pτ=σ, if there is one, and 0 otherwise. This is a definable ground-model function: the forcing relation and the HS predicate are definable, and any nonempty definable class of ordinal ranks has a least member. ZF Replacement in M strictly bounds its values on the displayed set by an ordinal α. If ux, some (τ,p)x˙ has pG0 and τG0=u; since uN, some HS σ also evaluates to u. The truth lemma gives a common strengthening qG0 of p forcing τ=σ, so r(τ,q)<α. Thus every ux is the value of an HS name of rank below α.

In M form the set S of all HS names of rank below α and the value-collecting name

y˙={σ,p:σS and pP}.

Because every generic filter is nonempty, y˙G0={σG0:σS}. Automorphisms preserve S, name rank, and all of P, so they fix y˙; all its immediate subnames lie in SHS. Hence y˙ is HS and xy˙G0N. [F2, F4]

1.3

For a,wN and a bounded formula φ(u,w) with any finite tuple of parameters, choose HS names a˙,w˙ and form the ground set-name {(τ,p)dom(a˙)×P:pτa˙φ(τ,w˙)}. Every immediate subname τ of a˙ is HS. Bounded truth is absolute between the transitive classes N and M[G0], so the truth lemma evaluates this name to {ua:Nφ(u,w)}. F2 shows that the finite intersection of the parameter stabilizers fixes this name, whose subnames are HS; filter closure puts that intersection in the filter. Thus N has every instance of Δ0-Separation.

2.1

Apply Jech's transitive-class criterion inside M[G0], rather than cutting an arbitrary ambient subset by bounded Separation. Transitivity supplies Extensionality and Foundation; check names supply and ω. For N-parameters, each of Jech's eight Gödel-operation outputs—unordered pair, difference, product, domain, membership relation restricted to a square, and three coordinate permutations—is an ambient set of elements already in N: first use unordered pairs and Kuratowski pairs, then the remaining operations in that finite order. By step 1.2 each such output lies inside an N-set, and its defining bounded formula with those parameters lets step 1.3 cut out exactly the output. Hence N is closed under the eight operations. Jech's formula-complexity induction from that closure and almost universality gives full Comprehension, including the unbounded-quantifier cases; it also derives Pairing, Union, internal Power Set, Infinity and Replacement (the last by bounding the outer set of functional values via almost universality, then applying Comprehension). This proves every ZF schema instance. No AC enters this argument, and only the ZF branch of F3 is used.
