FaithSieve is a Lean‑assisted framework that fine‑grains natural‑language mathematical proofs into local reasoning units, extracts typed proof obligations, and verifies them with formal evidence gated by semantic alignment. It introduces two expert‑verified datasets—ProofLoc‑Olympiad and ProofLoc‑University—to benchmark first‑error localization. On these benchmarks, FaithSieve outperforms direct‑judging baselines, achieving 81.43% and 84.5% exact first‑error accuracy respectively.

arXiv:2606. 26525v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Auto-formalization is critical for scalable formal verification, but existing progress largely focuses on isolated statements, while theory-scale auto-formalization, which coherently translates hundreds of interdependent definitions, lemmas, and theorems, remains open due to challenges in consistency, faithfulness, scalability, and correctness.

Magenta is a training‑free pipeline that bridges informal natural‑language mathematical problems and formal Lean 4 verification. Given a problem in plain text, it generates an answer, translates it into a Lean 4 statement, and constructs a machine‑checked proof. The system includes a statement judge to ensure the formalisation matches the original problem and an error‑attribution judge to guide corrections, achieving perfect accuracy on olympiad benchmarks and solving all six IMO 2026 problems when combined with K2‑Horizon‑7B.

arXiv:2607. 12650v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Tool access alone does not make LLM empirical reasoning governable: accepted outputs need not descend from attested evidence, and accepted deductions need not hold up under formal scrutiny.

arXiv:2606. 29493v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Benchmarks for LLM-assisted theorem proving in Lean are often treated as intrinsically reliable because every solved instance comes with a machine-checked proof.
