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.
Birational morphisms of integral finite-type schemes
Definition
Let be a field and let and be integral -schemes of finite type (Integral schemes, Locally finite type and finite type morphisms). Let and be their generic points (Generic points of irreducible closed subsets) and let be their function fields; by Function field of an integral finite-type scheme these stalks are fields and are canonically identified with the fraction fields of the coordinate rings of every nonempty affine open of , respectively .
A morphism of -schemes is birational when
- , and
- the map on stalks induced by (Morphisms of schemes) is an isomorphism.
Conditions (1) and (2) are the form taken by the definition of a birational morphism of schemes (Stacks Project, Definition 29.51.1, tag 01RO) for integral schemes: for such and the generic points and are the generic points of the unique irreducible components, and the local rings at them are the function fields. Thus a birational morphism identifies the function field of with the function field of .
