arXiv:2606. 29687v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We report a machine-verified resolution of a problem open for over a decade in quantum optimization: the Farhi, Goldstone and Gutmann (FGG) conjecture that depth-$p$ Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA) on the ring of disagrees attains approximation ratio $(2p+1)/(2p+2)$ exactly.

FormalFlow is a system that coordinates AI proving agents under human supervision to tackle long‑horizon formalizations, using a shared blueprint for nested planning, proving, and review loops. The team used it to produce a machine‑checked Lean 4 proof of the quantum soundness of the classical low‑individual‑degree test, a core theorem underlying MIP* = RE, in 63 days. The resulting library contains 126,367 lines of Lean code, all generated by agents, and corrects side conditions while preserving the published error bound under corrected assumptions.

arXiv:2505. 18492v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Mathematical competition problems fall into two broad types: theorem proving, which asks for a proof of a given statement, and answer construction, which requires constructing a property-satifying object with proofs.

AdvancedMathBench is a new benchmark suite that evaluates large language models on advanced mathematical proof generation and verification. It includes ProverBench, with 245 problems from undergraduate to doctoral qualifying‑exam levels, and VerifierBench, which tests models’ ability to judge proof validity using 888 expert‑annotated trajectories. The suite features an automatic verification pipeline trained on expert data, and results show that even state‑of‑the‑art models perform poorly, highlighting a gap between generation and verification skills.
