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 relative root deletion set is the restricted-hyperplane union

Statement

Let (W,S) be a finite-rank Coxeter system in its canonical real representation V=RS, with basis (αs), dual Θ, root system Φ, contragredient action, and Tits cone U. For I⊆S put EI={f:f(αi)=0 (i∈I)} and CI={f∈EI:f(αs)>0 (s∉I)}. Fix J⊆S and put E=EJ, T=U∩E, and T∘=int⁡ET. Write Hα={f:f(α)=0}, ΦJ={α∈Φ:E⊈Hα} and A={E∩Hα:α∈ΦJ}. Every member of A is a hyperplane in E, and T∖⋃α∈ΦJHα=T∖⋃K∈AK. The analogous equality holds with T∘ in place of T.

Facts & Assumptions

[F1]

The Coxeter representation, root hyperplanes and cone are those of Tits cone geometry with its exact interior boundary.

[F2]

Nonzero restricted evaluations have hyperplane kernels by Annihilators, relative hyperplanes and complexification.

Proof

Given: The objects and hypotheses of the statement. Goal: Establish its conclusion.

1.1F1F2given

The definition of ΦJ says exactly that evaluation at α is nonzero on E. Its kernel there is E∩Hα, which is a hyperplane by [F2].

2.1step 1.1givenalgebra∎

Both T and T∘ are subsets of E. For any such subset B, membership in B∩Hα equals membership in B∩(E∩Hα). Taking unions over ΦJ proves both equalities; repeated traces do not change a union. If E={0}, the index set is empty and the same argument applies.
