The paper introduces Ansatz, a mathematical research agent that uses Continual Graph Memory to organize and reuse intermediate proof results across multiple problems. The system represents facts, plans, and counterexamples in a unified graph, enabling dependency-aware retrieval, evidence-sensitive curation, and scoped recall to guide long-horizon proof searches. Experiments show Ansatz solves all ten First Proof Second Batch problems, tackles the Jamison caterpillar conjecture, and makes progress on several Erdős problems without human help.
arXiv:2607. 06447v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent LLM-based mathematical reasoning agents have begun to tackle research-level problems and, in several cases, have contributed to the resolution of open problems.

The paper introduces a new human‑AI collaboration paradigm for mathematical discovery, shifting from selecting individual problems to exploring broad research directions. It presents the Find, Attempt, and Recommend (FAR) pipeline, which automatically searches a literature corpus, filters candidate conjectures, and surfaces promising resolutions for expert review. In a combinatorics pilot, FAR processed over 5,000 papers, identified thousands of open conjectures, and ultimately highlighted 77 items that led to new discoveries.
arXiv:2607. 14178v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent advances in Large Language Models have fueled autonomous AI agents capable of tackling complex scientific tasks, yet existing automated research systems remain predominantly focused on empirically driven domains with quantitative benchmarks, leaving theory-driven discovery, particularly in mathematically grounded disciplines requiring rigorous proofs and synthesis of domain knowledge, largely underexplored.
EPOCH is an evidence‑governed architecture for AI research agents that improves how candidate discoveries are evaluated and validated. By combining explicit task contracts, typed memory, active falsification, admission checks, and independent replay, EPOCH ensures that each candidate is judged against the strength and scope of its claim. The system achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance on several benchmarks, including AlgoTune, Math14, and AgentHPO, and demonstrates significant advances in executable constructions, algorithm optimization, counterexamples, and proof‑supported results across ten discovery problems.
Automatically constructing well-specified and valuable mathematical conjectures remains a central challenge in AI-assisted mathematical discovery. Many existing open problems and conjectures are often too broad, underspecified, or difficult to connect to plausible proof or refutation strategies.
The paper introduces the AI Mathematician (AIM) framework, which leverages Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) to tackle frontier mathematical research. AIM addresses the complexity and procedural rigor of research problems through an exploration mechanism for longer solution paths and a pessimistic reasonable verification method for reliability. Early experiments show AIM can autonomously construct significant proof components and uncover non‑trivial insights across real‑world mathematical topics.
