| Apr 20, 2020 at 15:37 | comment | added | Peter Koepernik | @Buffy If possible, I would like to just cite it so I can use the statement. But if that is not possible, I guess i would have to include it. Then the question would be how to properly clarify that I did not create it myself. My advisor is not the source, but a lecturer from the same faculty at the same university. | |

| Apr 20, 2020 at 9:38 | comment | added | Dave L Renfro | I suppose one possibility is to pose the exercise as a question in Mathematics Stack Exchange, perhaps giving the context, and if a suitable-for-your-purposes (well written, sufficient detail, etc.) answer doesn't show up after a few days, then post your own answer. Once this is done, cite the answer(s) in your thesis. | |

Would I still mention that I know the statement from an exercise in a lecture, even if I create a proof myself? And if I copy the proof from the exercise solutions, would simply mentioning that the proof is copied from a lecture suffice? | |

| Apr 20, 2020 at 7:29 | comment | added | user111388 | Okay, thank you for the reponse! Is it possible for you to recreate the proof? | |
| Apr 20, 2020 at 6:55 | comment | added | Peter Koepernik | @user111388 My thesis advisor said that I shouldn't include the proof, but was also unsure how to proceed. He said I should first search for it in books and that we would see what to do if I couldn't find it. I didn't find it and we haven't talked since. I will ask him again, but I was wondering whether there was a somewhat generally accepted way to go about something like this. | |
