Large language models (LLMs) achieve strong results on mathematical reasoning benchmarks yet remain unreliable on elementary numerical tasks, including magnitude comparison, large-integer arithmetic, fractions, and scientific notation. This survey examines basic numerical understanding as a capability distinct from high-level mathematical reasoning.

Euclid-Omni is a unified neuro‑symbolic framework that integrates a formal geometry system with Large Language Models and Vision‑Language Models to solve both calculation and proving problems in Euclidean geometry up to Olympiad level. Its core component, Euclidea, automatically generates deductive reasoning steps and algebraic computations, while a data‑generation pipeline creates synthetic symbolic problems, diagrams, and natural‑language translations for training. Experiments show that VLMs trained on this synthetic data outperform on calculation tasks, and LLMs paired with Euclidea match state‑of‑the‑art proving systems using far less compute and data.
