The Growing Map of Open Mathematical Problems.We mapped 15,000+ conjectures from UnsolvedMath to show potential links between concepts.It also shows how under formalized the frontier is (less than 10%). pic.twitter.com/nm0PCpXVPf— Przemek Chojecki | PC (@prz_chojecki) August 28, 2026
An OpenAI model has disproved a central conjecture in discrete geometry
An OpenAI model solved the 80-year-old unit distance problem, disproving a major conjecture in discrete geometry and marking a milestone in AI-driven mathematics.
Amateur armed with ChatGPT 'vibe-maths' a 60-year-old problem
A ChatGPT AI has proved a conjecture with a method no human had thought of. Experts believe it may have further uses
Turán's theorem, from edges to eigenvalues
Turán's theorem is the founding result of extremal graph theory: among all graphs on $n$ vertices with no clique on $r+1$ vertices, the balanced complete multipartite graph has the most edges. We pres...
AI's solution to 87-year-old riddle takes mathematicians by surprise | New Scientist
Mathematicians have been trying to prove the Jacobian conjecture for nearly a century, but now the Claude Fable 5 AI has apparently found a counterexample that disproves it

AI has now solved a major open problem -- one of the best known Erdos problems called the unit distance problem, one of Erdos's favourite questions and one that many mathematicians had tried.https://t.co/SD1vVPkrHR— Timothy Gowers @wtgowers (@wtgowers) May 20, 2026
Has an AI discovered new maths?

We believe Cursor discovered a novel solution to Problem Six of the First Proof challenge, a set of math research problems that approximate the work of Stanford, MIT, Berkeley academics. Cursor's solution yields stronger results than the official, human-written solution.…— Michael Truell (@mntruell) March 3, 2026

Mathematics with large language models as provers and verifiers
During 2024 and 2025 the discussion about the theorem-proving capabilities of large language models started reporting interesting success stories, mostly to do with difficult exercises (such as problems from the International Mathematical Olympiad), but also with conjectures [Feldman & Karbasi, arXiv:2509.18383v1] formulated for the purpose of verifying whether the artificial intelligence could prove it. In this paper we report a theorem proving feat achieved by ChatGPT by using a protocol involving different prover and verifier instances of the gpt-5 model working collaboratively. To make sure that the produced proofs do not suffer from hallucinations, the final proof is formally verified by the lean proof assistant, and the conformance of premises and conclusion of the lean code is verified by a human. Our methodology is by no means complete or exact. It was nonetheless able to solve five out of six 2025 IMO problems, and close about a third of the sixty-six number theory conjectures in [Cohen, Journal of Integer Sequences, 2025].

Congrats to @LechMazur for the solution and to Terence Tao for the digestion and storytelling. You see the trend. Mathematicians are still needed if we want to make any sense of the formal proofs. For now... Maybe the next gen LLMs will simply read allthe blogs of Terry and… https://t.co/yXiISCrNAF— Bartosz Naskręcki (@nasqret) August 13, 2026
