Uniform Completeness, Completion, and the Samuel Compactification: Examples and Counterexamples
About this page
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.
✓ 5 results · all verified · 0 also independently AI-judged
Every result on this page is machine-checked by a proof checker and read in full and owner-audited; the judge is an additional, independent cross-model AI review of the proofs. The 5 not AI-judged were verified by owner audit (typically over a confirmed judge false positive), not failures.

Example
Under dependent choice and the ultrafilter lemma, the Samuel compactification of a nonempty compact Hausdorff space adds no points up to unique uniform isomorphism
Example
Under dependent choice and the ultrafilter lemma, the Samuel compactification of the open unit interval is the closed unit interval
Example
Under dependent choice and the ultrafilter lemma, the Samuel compactification of the discrete natural numbers is beta N
Counterexample
The Samuel compactification map need not be a uniform embedding for the original uniformity
