AI math proof verification reached a new frontier as DeepMind’s AlphaProof Nexus solved nine open Erdős research problems with Lean-verified proofs, some unsolved for 56 years. The May 2026 Science Ne ...

OpenAI's AI helped overturn a longstanding math conjecture by finding a counterexample, highlighting a powerful new way to ...

The second batch of “First Proof” problems is meant to evaluate AI’s usefulness for research-level math. The best model got ...

Artificial intelligence is mastering the kinds of projects that have long helped to build the careers of young mathematicians ...

Since the start of the 20th century, the heart of mathematics has been the proof — a rigorous, logical argument for whether a given statement is true or false. Mathematicians’ careers are measured by ...

Mathematician Will Sawin discusses his experience reviewing and refining a mathematical proof devised by OpenAI's internal model—and what that could mean for mathematics.

What happens when things combine? This question lies at the heart of the Borell-Brascamp-Lieb inequality (BBL), a mathematical relation widely applied across many fields of mathematics, science and ...

Mathematician Kevin Buzzard of Imperial College London is training computers how to prove one of the most famous problems in math history: Fermat’s last theorem. Resolving the problem isn’t the point.
