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 norm of a principal integral ideal

Statement

For $0 \neq α \in O_{K}$ , $N ((α)) = ∣ N_{K / Q} (α) ∣$ .

Proof

Given: $0 \neq α \in O_{K}$ and an integral basis.

1.1

Multiplication by $α$ is an injective integer matrix on the integral lattice, and its image is $(α)$ .

givenalgebra

2.1

The index of the image of an injective integer matrix is the absolute determinant; that determinant is the field norm. Hence the quotient cardinality has the asserted value.

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.
