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.
Naturality and edge maps of the AHSS
Statement
Every cellular map of finite CW complexes induces morphisms of the cohomological and homological Atiyah–Hirzebruch spectral sequences of Cohomological Atiyah–Hirzebruch spectral sequence and Homological Atiyah–Hirzebruch spectral sequence: on every page the induced maps commute with the differentials and the page transitions. A morphism of reduced generalized cohomology theories that commutes with suspension and with the cofiber connecting maps induces a morphism of the cohomological spectral sequences; the analogous kind of morphism between reduced generalized homology theories induces a morphism of the homological spectral sequences. These morphisms preserve the edge maps of Edge maps of a bounded skeletal AHSS, and all constructions are compatible with composition and identities.
Facts & Assumptions
A morphism of exact couples induces a morphism of their derived couples and of their spectral sequences, preserving every bidegree and page transition, and this construction respects identities and composition (A map of exact couples induces a map of spectral sequences).
The two skeletal exact couples are built from the pair long exact sequences of the skeleta and from the suspension and connecting data of the theory (Exact couple, Cohomological Atiyah–Hirzebruch spectral sequence, Homological Atiyah–Hirzebruch spectral sequence).
The edge maps are the structural maps of the exact couple under the stable identifications (Edge maps of a bounded skeletal AHSS).
Proof
Given: A cellular map of finite CW complexes and reduced generalized cohomology and homology theories and their morphisms as above.
Since is cellular, it maps into for every , so on each pair it induces a map of pairs and hence a map and, in the absolute groups, . By naturality of the pair long exact sequences and of the suspension isomorphisms these maps commute with and define a morphism of the cohomological skeletal exact couples; the homological case is the same with covariant arrows.
Identity cellular maps induce identity exact-couple morphisms, and composites of cellular maps induce the composites of the corresponding exact-couple morphisms, by functoriality on every skeletal pair.
A morphism of reduced generalized cohomology theories commuting with suspension and connecting maps assigns to each pair long exact sequence a commuting ladder, hence defines a morphism of cohomological skeletal exact couples; the same argument for a morphism of reduced generalized homology theories gives a morphism of homological skeletal exact couples.
By [F2] the morphisms of step 1.1 and step 1.3 induce morphisms of the derived couples and of every page, commuting with differentials and transitions; composition and identities are respected because the exact-couple construction is functorial.
The induced morphisms carry the stable numerator and denominator of the exact couple into the corresponding stable subobjects, so under the edge identifications of [F4] they induce the maps on the filtration stages and filtration quotients; hence the edge maps are preserved.
Steps 1.2, 2.1 and 3.1 show that the induced page maps respect identities and composition, commute with all structure, and preserve the edge maps, which proves the theorem in both the cohomological and homological cases.

Dependency tree · two levels
27 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.
