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.

Transport of a Garside structure to the presented monoid

Statement

Let j:M→A+ be the positive-image isomorphism associated with an injective canonical map of an Artin monoid. Suppose (A+,ϕ+,Δ+) is a one-object categorical Garside structure and j(Δ)=Δ+. Put ϕ=j−1ϕ+j. Then (M,ϕ,Δ) is an atomic categorical Garside structure. Left and right gcds and lcms transfer through j, and x is simple in M exactly when j(x) is simple in A+. Here left and right gcds and lcms mean meets and joins in the respective divisibility orders.

Facts & Assumptions

[F1]

A one-object atomic categorical Garside structure consists of an atomic cancellative monoid, an automorphism ϕ with xΔ=Δϕ(x), simple atoms, and lattice orders for left and right divisibility; simple means xy=Δ for some y. (Categorical Garside structures and simple arrows, Divisibility and atomicity in a category)

[F2]

The isomorphism j and its inverse preserve products, both divisibility relations and atoms. (Identifying the presented monoid with its positive image)

[F3]

The presented Artin monoid has factorizations into atoms and a degree bounding all nonidentity factorizations. (Positive degree and atoms of the presented Artin monoid)

Proof

Given: The objects and hypotheses in the statement.

Goal: Establish all assertions of the statement.

1.1F1F2F3given

Conjugating ϕ+ by the isomorphism yields a monoid automorphism ϕ. Applying the injective j to the desired naturality equation gives j(x)Δ+=Δ+ϕ+(j(x)), which holds by the assumed structure. Cancellation in M follows by applying j and using cancellation in A+. Atomicity holds by [F3], including bounded lengths of all nonidentity factorizations.

2.1F1F2step 1.1∎

By [F2] each divisibility order is order-isomorphic to its counterpart in A+. The inverse image of the meet or join satisfies exactly its defining universal property, giving both gcds and lcms. An equality j(x)y+=Δ+ pulls back uniquely to xy=Δ; therefore simplicity transfers. Atoms transfer by [F2], so each is simple since atoms in A+ are simple. Together these verify every condition in [F1].
