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 space of continuous real-valued functions on a nonempty compact metric space
Definition
Let be a nonempty compact metric space (Open cover, subcover, compact metric space, and compact subset of a metric space). Define
where is the function space of The vector space of all functions with pointwise operations, and as the case and is the usual metric (The absolute value makes a metric space: is a metric, its open balls are the intervals , and it is unbounded, Continuity of a map between metric spaces, at a point and globally, in the - form).
This definition introduces the set of continuous functions only. Boundedness and the supremum metric are assertions to be proved, not clauses of the definition.
