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.
The cohomological filtered complex construction
Statement
Let K be a cochain complex with decreasing filtration by subcomplexes. Set , and . Then The construction gives and . With degreewise finite filtration it naturally abuts to the decreasing image filtration on , with .
Facts & Assumptions
Given: A decreasing filtered cochain complex K.
Negating both indices converts homological into cohomological spectral sequences (Cohomological spectral sequence).
Finite filtered homological construction has natural graded-homology abutment (Bounded filtered complex spectral sequence abuts to filtered homology).
Filtered chain maps induce compatible maps on all pages (A filtered chain map induces a morphism of spectral sequences).
A cochain complex has d raising degree and consecutive differential composite zero (Cochain complex in an abelian category).
The initial homological page is the associated graded complex (E zero is the associated graded complex).
The first homological page is homology of that graded complex (E one is homology of the associated graded complex).
Proof
Since , the specified is increasing. The cochain differential maps and preserves that piece; its square is zero by [F4]. Thus this is a filtered chain complex. The index rule in [F1] turns the target into .
At r=0, the chain quotient at (-p,-q) is . Its differential is induced by , so its homology is . The first-page identification in [F6] supplies the next-page isomorphism, giving the displayed . Its square-zero property and every subsequent transition are preserved by the index substitution.
Degreewise finite decreasing bounds become finite increasing bounds after negating their indices. Apply [F2] with chain degree −(p+q): its image filtration is precisely the image . The next lower chain piece corresponds to , giving the stated graded quotient. A filtered cochain map reindexes to a filtered chain map by the same formula; [F3] and the naturality in [F2] prove naturality of all identifications.
