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.

Statement

Let k be a field, X a smooth finite-type k-scheme, and r≥0. Write Zr(X) for the free abelian group on integral closed subschemes of codimension r in X, with codimension measured on the ambient irreducible component containing the generic point. Then the identification X×Δ0=X gives zr(X,0)=Zr(X).

Facts & Assumptions

Given: k, X and r as in the statement.

Goal: Identify the two free abelian groups on their generators.

[F1]

The definition of the Bloch complex uses integral closed codimension-r subschemes meeting all nonempty coordinate faces in codimension r. Bloch cycle complexes and higher Chow groups

Proof

1.1F1

The equation defining Δ0 is t0=1, so X×Δ0=X. Its only nonempty coordinate face is itself, and every codimension-r generator meets this face in codimension r.

2.1step 1.1∎

Thus the two displayed free abelian groups have exactly the same generators, and the identity on those generators is the asserted identification.
