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.
-homomorphisms and -embeddings of field extensions
Definition
Let and be field extensions (Field extensions, generated subrings , generated subfields , and simple extensions). An -homomorphism is a field homomorphism (Field homomorphism and embedding) satisfying for every . Because field homomorphisms are injective, it is also called an -embedding. A bijective -homomorphism is an -isomorphism, and an -isomorphism is an -automorphism of .
