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.
Additivity of the supported coherent Euler class
PDF p. 15: Supported degree-zero dévissage
Statement
Assume the Axiom of Choice and the fixed suitable universes of the supplied supported perfect category. Let be as in the preceding construction. The formula defines a homomorphism from the triangle Grothendieck group of to . The sum is finite. It sends a sheaf in degree zero to its sheaf class, and is compatible with forgetting support into the corresponding unsuppported groups on .
Facts & Assumptions
The assumed The Axiom of Choice and fixed universes discharge the supported-heart construction in [F1] when using its actual bounded t-structure in steps 1.1–2.1. The finite alternating-sum argument requires no additional choice.
Given: The Axiom of Choice, the fixed suitable universes, and the supported perfect category with its bounded t-structure and coherent supported heart.
Goal: Verify the Euler assignment on every relation, not merely on terms of a locally free resolution.
Inherited bounded t structure on supported perfect complexes supplies finite coherent supported cohomology and the usual long exact cohomology sequence of a triangle.
Cofiber and triangle presentations of K zero identifies the triangle group with the cofiber presentation. The abelian Grothendieck group is defined by short exact relations.
Proof
Cohomology is invariant under equivalence, and boundedness in [F1] makes the displayed assignment a finite sum on every object. For a triangle , the long exact sequence of cohomology is finite after deleting zero terms and consists of objects in . In any finite exact sequence of an abelian category, breaking at images gives short exact sequences; summing their Grothendieck relations makes its alternating sum zero, since each image occurs twice with opposite signs. Applying this to the cohomology sequence gives .
The assignment therefore descends to the triangle group. For it is , because the only nonzero cohomology is . Forgetting support changes neither the underlying sheaves nor their cohomology; it sends each short exact relation to the same relation. Thus the Euler homomorphisms commute with forgetting support.
