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.

Countability of every finite-dimensional integer lattice

Statement

For every positive integer d, the integer lattice Γ=Zd is at most countable. Countability here means finite or in bijection with N, as in Finite, countably infinite, countable, uncountable.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The usual set Z of signed integers, the von Neumann natural numbers N, and a fixed finite d≥1.

[F1]

A set is at most countable when it is finite or equinumerous with N (Finite, countably infinite, countable, uncountable).

[F2]

A nonempty set is at most countable if a surjection from N onto it exists (A nonempty set is at most countable iff it is a surjective image of N). This criterion uses no choice principle.

[F3]

Every finite Cartesian power of an at most countable set is at most countable (Every finite power of an at most countable set is at most countable).

[F4]

The integers are the quotient of N×N by (a,b)∼(c,d) iff a+d=b+c, and the quotient map π(a,b)=[(a,b)] is surjective (The integers as equivalence classes of pairs of naturals).

Proof

technique · direct

Given: d≥1 and Γ=Zd.

1.1F1F2F3F4construct

The identity map shows that N is at most countable by [F1], so [F3] gives that N×N is at most countable. This product is nonempty, so [F2] supplies a surjection s:N→N×N. By [F4], the quotient map π:N×N→Z is surjective; hence π∘s:N→Z is a surjection.

2.1step 1.1F1F2

The surjection in step 1.1 makes Z nonempty, and [F2] then shows that Z is at most countable in the sense of [F1].

3.1givenstep 2.1F3∎

Since d is finite and positive, [F3] with C=Z and m=d gives that Γ=Zd is at most countable.
