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.

Curvature two-form structure equation

Statement

Let $e = (e_{1}, \dots, e_{r})$ be a local frame, let $ω = (ω^{i}_{j})$ be its connection matrix, and let $Ω = (Ω^{i}_{j})$ be the matrix of the curvature two-form, defined by $R^{\nabla} (X, Y) e_{j} = Ω^{i}_{j} (X, Y) e_{i}$ . Then

$Ω = d ω + ω \land ω,$

where multiplication order is fixed by

$(ω \land ω)^{i}_{j} = \sum_{k} ω^{i}_{k} \land ω^{k}_{j} .$

Proof

Given: A local frame $e$ , a coordinate chart on its domain, and coordinate fields $\partial_{a}, \partial_{b}$ .

1.1F1F2F3algebra

Since coordinate fields commute, expand the defining curvature commutator on $e_{j}$ with [F2]–[F3]. The coefficient of $e_{i}$ is $\partial_{a} (ω^{i}_{j} (\partial_{b})) - \partial_{b} (ω^{i}_{j} (\partial_{a})) + \sum_{k} (ω^{i}_{k} (\partial_{a}) ω^{k}_{j} (\partial_{b}) - ω^{i}_{k} (\partial_{b}) ω^{k}_{j} (\partial_{a}))$ .

2.1F1F4F5step 1.1algebra∎

By [F4], the first two terms in step 1.1 are $d ω^{i}_{j} (\partial_{a}, \partial_{b})$ ; by [F5], the sum is $\sum_{k} (ω^{i}_{k} \land ω^{k}_{j}) (\partial_{a}, \partial_{b})$ in precisely the stated matrix order. Both sides are two-forms by [F1], so equality on every coordinate-frame pair proves $Ω^{i}_{j} = d ω^{i}_{j} + \sum_{k} ω^{i}_{k} \land ω^{k}_{j}$ .
