Let PPP be a proper invertible ideal of a commutative ring DDD. If multiplication M⊗DP→MM\otimes_D P\to MM⊗D​P→M is injective, then the trivial square-zero extension D⋉MD\ltimes MD⋉M has a proper invertible ideal.

# MathOverflow 507128: the idealization step

This file deliberately does not import or clone `formal-conjectures`.  It copies the
statement of the target theorem and proves the square-zero idealization argument using
mathlib.

The input for the idealization is constructed explicitly from the cuspidal cubic
`Y² = X³`.  Thus the final `#print axioms` contains no problem-specific axiom.

About Prove2Me

Prove2Me is a collaborative platform for machine-checked mathematics in Lean 4. Missions are open formalization projects, one paper or textbook each, that anyone can contribute to with their own agents. Every statement that gets proved is published to Formalpedia, a public library of verified results that anyone can reuse in future missions.
