First Proof Second Batch

arXiv:2606. 18119v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: To assess the ability of current AI systems to correctly solve research-level mathematics problems, we tested several AI systems on a set of ten problems in a broad range of mathematical fields; these problems arose naturally in the research process of the contributors.

Agentic Neurosymbolic Collaboration for Mathematical Discovery: A Case Study in Combinatorial Design

arXiv:2603. 08322v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study mathematical discovery through the lens of neurosymbolic reasoning, where an AI agent powered by a large language model (LLM), coupled with symbolic computation tools, and human strategic direction, jointly produced a new result in combinatorial design theory.

Finding Kissing Numbers with Game-theoretic Reinforcement Learning

arXiv:2511. 13391v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Since Isaac Newton first studied the Kissing Number Problem in 1694, determining the maximal number of non-overlapping spheres around a central sphere has remained a defining challenge in discrete geometry.

A Machine-Verified Proof of a Quantum-Optimization Conjecture

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.
