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.
Localizing a Dedekind domain at a nonzero prime gives a DVR
Statement
Let be a Dedekind domain and let be a nonzero prime ideal. Then is a discrete valuation ring.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: A Dedekind domain and a nonzero prime ideal .
A Dedekind domain is a Noetherian integrally closed domain of Krull dimension (Dedekind domains).
In a Noetherian integrally closed domain, the localisation at a height-one prime is a discrete valuation ring (Height-one localizations of normal Noetherian domains are DVRs).
Proof
Because is a domain, is a strict prime chain. Since [F1] gives , no longer strict chain ending at exists. Therefore has height .
The ring is Noetherian and integrally closed by [F1], and step 1.1 shows that is height one. Hence [L1] applies and gives that is a discrete valuation ring.
