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.

The Murphy tableau elements form a cellular basis

Statement

Let R be a commutative ring, q∈R×, and H=HR,q(Sn) (The generic type-A Hecke algebra). Let Λ be the set of partitions of n ordered by dominance ⊵ (Dominance order on partitions), and for λ∈Λ let T(λ)=Std(λ) be the set of standard λ-tableaux (Tableaux and standard tableaux). Then the Murphy basis theorem holds: the family M={mst:λ⊢n, s,t∈Std(λ)} is an R-basis of H, and (M,Λ) is a cellular basis of H in the sense of Cellular bases and cell modules. Explicitly: (i) mst∗=mts for all λ and s,t; and (ii) for every λ, every t∈Std(λ) and every h∈H there exist rv∈R with msth≡∑v∈Std(λ)rv msv(modH⊳λ), where H⊳λ is spanned by the muv with μ⊳λ. The theorem holds over every commutative coefficient ring with q∈R× and assumes no semisimplicity; the total number of Murphy elements is ∑λ⊢n∣Std(λ)∣2=n! (The sum of squares of the standard tableau numbers), matching the rank of H.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: A commutative ring R, a unit q, the type-A Hecke algebra and the Murphy elements mst=Td(s)∗xλTd(t) in the Statement.

[F1]

The independent integral construction proves that these exact elements form a base-change-compatible basis; their dominance spans are two-sided ideals, star interchanges the indices, and their multiplication satisfies the fixed-first-index cell law over every commutative coefficient ring with unit parameter (The Murphy cellular basis, the cell law and the Murphy form).

[F2]

The elements xλ and d(t) are the row symmetrizer and distinguished tableau permutations of Murphy elements and Murphy tableau elements, using the standard Hecke basis of The standard basis of the generic type-A Hecke algebra. The dominance poset, tableau sets and cardinality sum are Dominance order on partitions, Tableaux and standard tableaux and The sum of squares of the standard tableau numbers.

1.1givenF1F2algebra

Identify the objects in [F1]. Its row symmetrizer is xλ=∑w∈SλTw, its permutation is the unique distinguished d(t) carrying the row-filled tableau to t, and its element is Td(s)∗xλTd(t). These are precisely [F2]'s Murphy elements. The proved integral basis in [F1] therefore gives the required R-basis and mst∗=mts, including the empty tableau when n=0.

Its dominance ideal I⊳λ and the present H⊳λ are the spans of exactly the same basis elements, so they are equal. The independent cell law says msth≡∑vrvmsv modulo this ideal, with coefficients independent of s. Together with step 1.1 and the same finite dominance poset, these are exactly the cellular axioms and all asserted formulas. The basis has ∑λ∣Std⁡(λ)∣2=n! elements by [F2]. Every part holds after every base change by [F1], so no specialized semisimplicity or factor inversion is needed. No choice principle is used.
