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.

Multiplier of an abelian group

Statement

For every abelian group A, there is a natural isomorphism M(A)2A.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: Choose a free presentation A=F/R; since A is abelian, [F,F]R.

Proof

technique · direct
1.1

The rule xˉyˉ[x,y][F,R] is independent of the chosen lifts: changing a lift by an element of R changes the commutator by an element of [F,R]. It is alternating and bilinear modulo [F,R], so the universal property gives a homomorphism 2A[F,F]/[F,R].

2.1

Conversely, the commutator quotient [F,F]/[F,R] is generated by the classes of [x,y], subject exactly to the alternating bilinear commutator relations; sending such a class to xˉyˉ is therefore a well-defined inverse. Hopf's formula gives M(A)=[F,F]/[F,R]2A, and the construction is natural in A.

Dependency tree · two levels

6 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.
