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.
Divisibility survives the quotient and the support image
PDF p. 13: Proposition 6.1 support argument
Statement
Assume the Axiom of Choice and the fixed site and universe bounds of the motivic and support constructions. Let be an arbitrary algebraically closed field, let be an affine finite-type -scheme of Krull dimension three, put , and let be a closed integral curve contained in . The group is divisible, and its image under the actual support-to-global map into is divisible. No injectivity of that map is required.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The algebraically closed field , affine finite-type threefold , smooth locus , closed integral curve , Axiom of Choice, and fixed site and universe bounds in the statement.
Goal: Construct the stated actual maps and prove their consequence.
The divisor presentation and actual Picard surjection supplies an actual surjection from a divisible group onto the supported group under exactly the stated geometry, field, Choice and size hypotheses. This includes the zero case on a lower-dimensional smooth stratum. Choice is inherited from its normalization and Picard constructions; The Axiom of Choice records that premise.
Motivic and filtered K theory with support gives the actual support-to-global homomorphism under the stated Choice and size conventions.
Proof
For any surjection with D divisible, fix and positive n. Choose with , then with . Thus . Negative integers are handled by negation. Apply this to the actual surjection in the preceding lemma (or to its zero case). This proves divisibility of the supported group.
Let be the support-to-global homomorphism fixed by the completed support definition. For and positive n, choose b in A with from step 1.1. Then , so every element of the image has an n-th root in that same image. Again handle negative n by negation. This proves the asserted image divisibility without identifying the support group with its image.
