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.
Toën derived Hall numbers have the higher-Ext orbit formula
Statement
Let be perfect right dg -modules for a locally finite dg-enhancement . Define
and let act on this finite set by precomposition. For , write
Then the coefficient in Toën derived Hall algebra by homotopy-cofiber convolution is
and equivalently
All products are finite because perfect modules have finite total Ext.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: A finite field , a locally finite dg-enhancement , perfect modules , and the coefficient from Toën derived Hall algebra by homotopy-cofiber convolution.
The coefficient is the weighted homotopy cardinality of the fiber of the target map over , restricted to arrows with source isomorphic to and cofiber isomorphic to (Toën derived Hall algebra by homotopy-cofiber convolution).
The homotopy type of this restricted fiber is locally finite; its connected components are represented by arrows into (Derived Hall moduli types are locally finite and the input span is proper).
For perfect modules, every total Ext space is finite-dimensional over and vanishes outside a finite range (Perfect dg modules have finite total Ext).
For a component represented by in the target fiber, its homotopy weight is (Mapping-space homotopy groups give the derived Hall stabilizer weight).
Proof
Fix a representative . The fiber in [F1] fixes the target and restricts the source and cofiber to the isomorphism classes of and ; it retains no chosen equivalence of the source to or of the cofiber to . For an arrow in that restriction, choose a source equivalence to express its derived morphism as with cofiber isomorphic to . A different source identification precomposes by an element of . Two such representatives lie in the same component precisely when there is a source equivalence over up to homotopy: after the identifications this says in the derived category for some (using its inverse if the equivalence is oriented oppositely). Conversely that equality gives a homotopy between the maps and hence an equivalence of arrows in the target homotopy fiber. The cofiber condition restricts components and adds no framing. Thus the component set is exactly . This identifies only components; their higher homotopy and stabilizer weights are retained in the following weight calculation.
By [F4], the weight of the component represented by is its stabilizer reciprocal times the higher-Ext factor displayed in the first formula. This uses the homotopy exact sequence in [F4], including its low-degree stabilizer tail; in particular the stabilizer is not the component set of the mapping-space fiber.
Summing the component weights from step 1.2 over the component set in step 1.1 gives the first displayed formula by [F1].
For a finite group acting on a finite set , each orbit of has size , so . Apply this with and , then collect the common Ext factor in step 2.1. This gives the second formula.
