AI agent solves open math problems using formal proof search

Researchers have developed an AI agent capable of autonomously solving open mathematical problems by generating formal proofs in languages like Lean. This agent successfully resolved 9 out of 353 open Erdős problems and proved 44 out of 492 OEIS conjectures. The AI-driven formal proof search is being integrated into research across various mathematical fields, demonstrating its potential to advance scientific discovery. AI

    Advancing Mathematics Research with AI-Driven Formal Proof Search

    Large language models (LLMs) increasingly excel at mathematical reasoning, but their unreliability limits their utility in mathematics research. A mitigation is using LLMs to generate formal proofs in languages like Lean. We perform the first large-scale evaluation of this method…
