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.

Injective object

Definition

An object $I$ of an abelian category is injective when for every monomorphism $m : M ↣ E$ and every morphism $f : M \to I$ , there exists a morphism $\tilde{f} : E \to I$ with

$\tilde{f} m = f .$

The extension $\tilde{f}$ need not be unique.
