Long-horizon autoformalization of a core theorem underlying MIP* = RE

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.

AI Mathematician: Towards Fully Automated Frontier Mathematical Research

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.
