Researchers have developed a self-supervised AI agent capable of discovering mathematical theorems without relying on human-provided knowledge. This agent starts with basic axioms and inference rules, iteratively growing a library of useful theorems by alternating between proof search and theorem extraction. Experiments demonstrate the agent's ability to discover tens of thousands of theorems and improve the performance of large language models on benchmark problems when its discoveries are used as prompt lemmas.
