A mathematical proof has resolved the 26x26 queen domination number, establishing that 14 queens are both sufficient and necessary to dominate the board. This proof, verified by Lean 4.32.2 and an independent kernel, was developed using AI tools for theorycrafting and implementation. The problem, which involves queens attacking each other, was previously an open question with a known arrangement of 13 queens but an unknown minimum requirement. AI
