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.

Injective comparison maps are unique up to cochain homotopy

Statement

Assume the Axiom of Dependent Choice.

Any two coaugmentation-preserving maps between injective resolutions extending the same object morphism are cochain-homotopic.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: Two maps between injective resolutions extending the same morphism u:AB.

[L1]

Projective comparison maps are unique up to chain homotopy (Projective comparison maps are unique up to chain homotopy).

[L2]

The opposite of an abelian category is abelian (The opposite of an abelian category is abelian).

Proof

technique · direct
1.1

By [L2], pass to the opposite abelian category. There the two given maps become comparison maps between projective resolutions lifting the same morphism, so [L1] makes them chain-homotopic.

2.1

Translating the resulting chain homotopy back to the original category gives the required cochain homotopy.

10 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.
