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.
Rotation on one factor of a product with positive-dimensional fixed components
Example
Let act on by , and let . The fixed set is the disjoint union , with and ; the normal weights are and , respectively. Let be the weight-one character class and the generator with . Then localized restriction identifies
where the two summands are the Borel cohomology of the two positive-dimensional fixed components.

Verification
Given: The action and conventions in the Example.
If both coordinates of the first factor are nonzero, its projective line cannot be fixed by every circle element, so the fixed points of that factor are exactly and ; the second factor is fixed pointwise. In the charts and , the normal weights are and , so the corresponding character classes are and , both invertible in .
The Borel construction of is the disjoint union of two copies of . By [F2] and the ring Künneth isomorphism [F3], each component has ring . As an -module this is ; localizing its two coefficients gives . Applying [F4] proves the claimed localized restriction formula.
