The paper announces a new lower bound of 0.8559 for the Steiner ratio, improving on the previous 0.824 bound for the Gilbert‑Pollak Conjecture. It introduces an AI system that uses large language models to generate rule‑constrained geometric lemmas, which are then turned into executable verification functions that certify the bound. The approach relies on only thousands of LLM calls, highlighting the feasibility of LLM‑based methods for advanced mathematical research.

We construct OEIS Open, a benchmark based on 492 open mathematical conjectures from the OEIS, formalized in Lean by Tsoukalas et al. Whereas these conjectures had previously been attempted only with a bespoke agent, our open-source evaluation code runs any generic language model (LM) against them, and is secure against LM cheating attempts.
