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.
Internal Power Set in L
Statement
In ZF, for every , the ambient set belongs to . It is the power set of computed internally in .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: ZF; a in L. Ambient Power Set and Replacement bound all constructible subsets; already proved internal Separation then produces the internal power set without circularity.
Separation in the constructible universe: Separation inside L is proved for each fixed formula.
Transitivity, growth, ordinals and rank in L: Constructible rank bounds give level membership; every level itself belongs to L and L is transitive.
Proof
In the ambient universe use Separation on to form . The predicate of belonging to L is uniformly definable. Ambient Replacement collects ; put . Then and . This bounds all constructible subsets simultaneously without using Power Set or Replacement in L.
The set is itself an element of L. Apply F1 inside L to this set with the predicate . For , this predicate is absolute directly: every member of lies in L by transitivity, and membership in is actual membership. The separated set is therefore by step 1.1. It belongs to L and contains exactly the internal subsets of a, proving internal Power Set.

Dependency tree · two levels
7 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.
