New AI Benchmark SorryDB Tests Real-World Math Formalization

Researchers have introduced SorryDB, a novel benchmark designed to evaluate AI's ability to complete real-world formalization tasks in the Lean mathematical proof assistant. Unlike static benchmarks, SorryDB is dynamically updated with open tasks from GitHub projects, aiming to produce AI tools that are more aligned with community needs and capable of handling complex dependencies. Initial evaluations show that while an agentic approach using Gemini Flash performs best, it is not strictly superior to other large language models, specialized provers, or curated Lean tactics, suggesting a complementary nature among current AI approaches for formal mathematics. AI

IMPACT This benchmark could accelerate the development of AI agents capable of contributing to formal mathematics and complex dependency reasoning.

    SorryDB: Can AI Provers Complete Real-World Lean Theorems?

    arXiv:2603.02668v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We present SorryDB, a dynamically-updating benchmark of open Lean tasks drawn from 78 real world formalization projects on GitHub. Unlike existing static benchmarks, often composed of competition problems, hillclimbing the Sorry…
