hello there the jacobian conjecture is false thanx to my close friend akhil for asking about it and my other close friend fable for working during the world cup final((1+xy)^3 z + y^2 (1+xy) (4+3xy), y + 3 x (1+xy)^2 z + 3 x y^2 (4+3xy), 2 x - 3 x^2 y - x^3 z): \C^3\to \C^3,…— levent (@__alpoge__) July 20, 2026

Direct Consequences of the Three-Dimensional Counterexample to the Jacobian Conjecture
Expository writing following an explicit three-dimensional Keller counterexample.
Jacobian Conjecture -- from Wolfram MathWorld
The Jacobian conjecture asserts that a polynomial map F:C^n->C^n having a nonzero constant Jacobian determinant is an automorphism. In the plane, first stated by Keller (1939), it says that a ring map F of C[x,y] (the polynomial ring in two variables over the complex numbers) to itself that fixes C and sends x, y to f, g, respectively, is an automorphism iff the Jacobian f_xg_y-f_yg_x is a nonzero constant. The condition is easily shown to be necessary. There have been at least five...

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

I am a mathematician but I avoided commenting on this because the problems are (far) outside my domain. Even if I sat down to read the technical details (which I have not), it would be hard to appreciate the context of prior work, etc. But I've gotten enough sense of things… https://t.co/VZzosBYFto— Tony Feng (@tonylfeng) August 5, 2026

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

in a twist, the code below is correct!"The ^ operator indicates crossing to the specified degree. For example (a+b+c)^2 is identical to (a+b+c)*(a+b+c) which in turn expands to a formula containing the main effects for a, b and c together with their second-order interactions" https://t.co/sBErcEfV6B pic.twitter.com/RrF6bKY5Sl— Lucy D’Agostino McGowan (@LucyStats) February 21, 2024
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].
