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.

Restriction of finite-support divisors

PDF p. 13: Divisibility of the normalization Picard group

Statement

Let S be a set and B⊆S. Write Z(S) for the abelian group of integer-valued functions on S with finite support. Restriction to S∖B gives an exact sequence Z(B)→Z(S)→Z(S∖B)→0, where the first map extends functions by zero.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: A set S and a subset B.

Goal: Prove the displayed sequence exact.

Proof

1.1givenconstruct

Extension by zero and restriction preserve finite support and addition. Every finitely supported function on S∖B extends by zero to S, so restriction is surjective.

2.1step 1.1∎

A finitely supported function on S restricts to zero on S∖B exactly when its support is contained in B; it is then the extension by zero of its restriction to B. This proves exactness.
