Riesz transforms and rectifiability in higher codimension

OpenAI groups related papers into a “family”. OpenAI’s catalogue describes this one:

Resolves the remaining higher-codimension Riesz-transform rectifiability problem: for d ≥ 4 and \(2\le n\le d-2\), an n-Ahlfors–David regular Radon measure on ℝd is uniformly n-rectifiable whenever its n-dimensional Riesz transform is uniformly L2-bounded over all positive hard truncations. The rectifiability bounds depend only on dimension, regularity and operator bounds. (OpenAI’s Lean note)

Lean is a language for mathematical statements and proofs that a computer can verify. The assessments below ask whether those statements express the result OpenAI describes here.

Both independent assessments find that the Lean statements express or imply the whole result described above. Read the assessments

What the papers state

Theorem 1.3

In Riesz transforms and uniform rectifiability in higher codimension, 24 September 2026

Possible match to OpenAI’s description, selected from the papers’ main statements because it shares the most wording. No review confirming the selection is recorded.

Let d\ge4 and 2\le n\le d-2 be integers. Let \mu be an n-Ahlfors–David regular Radon measure on \R^d satisfying (1.2). Then \mu is uniformly n-rectifiable in the sense of Definition 1.2. Its constants \theta and M can be chosen in terms of d,n,C_{\rm AD} and C_{\rm R} alone.

Proposition 1.8 (Regular dyadic cells)

In Riesz transforms and uniform rectifiability in higher codimension, 24 September 2026

Possible match to OpenAI’s description, selected from shared wording. No review confirming the selection is recorded.

If D_E>0, there are a common \mu-null set N\subset E and families \mathcal D_k of Borel cells in E\setminus N such that:

  1. (i)

    each \mathcal D_k partitions E\setminus N, and cells of different generations are disjoint or nested;

  2. (ii)

    writing \ell(Q)=2^{-k} for Q\in\mathcal D_k, there are centers z_Q\in Q and constants 0<c_0\le1/2, C_0\ge2 for which

    (E\setminus N)\cap B(z_Q,c_0\ell(Q))\subset Q \subset E\cap B(z_Q,C_0\ell(Q)),\qquad c_1\ell(Q)^n\le\mu(Q)\le C_1\ell(Q)^n;
  3. (iii)

    every non-top cell has one parent, and every cell has finitely many children. When D_E=\infty, all integer generations are available. When D_E<\infty, there is a largest scale \ell_0 with D_E\le\ell_0<2D_E, and finitely many cells at that scale.

All constants depend only on d,n,C_{\rm AD}.

No Lean statement in the release is paired with this theorem.

The release does not say which paper theorem its catalogue describes. Both statements above are shown whole: the paper’s main theorem first, then the statement that shares the most wording with the description. The atlas has not reviewed either choice.

Riesz transforms and uniform rectifiability in higher codimension

24 September 2026, current edition.

Read it herePDF

We prove that an n-Ahlfors–David regular Radon measure on ℝd is uniformly n-rectifiable if its n-dimensional Riesz transform is uniformly bounded from scalar \(L^2(\mu)\) to vector-valued \(L^2(\mu)\) over all positive hard truncations, for integers d ≥ 4 and \(2\le n\le d-2\). This gives a positive answer to the David–Semmes Riesz-transform question in its remaining higher-codimension range. The conclusion gives uniform big pieces of Lipschitz images of Euclidean balls.

One Lean statement in this family

Lean is a language for mathematical statements and proofs that a computer can verify. The Lean statement below is shown beside its possible paper counterpart, with the reason they were linked.

For a configured theorem, the Comparator program tests whether OpenAI’s separate proof proves the exact Lean statement using only the allowed axioms. Some statement files instead configure definitions for comparison by name and type. Acceptance does not establish that a formal statement means the same thing as the paper’s theorem.

This file states the theorem with sorry, a placeholder, in place of its proof. OpenAI supplies a separate proof file. Comparator tests whether that proof proves the statement here.

Atlas found these propositions by scanning the text of the project’s Model.lean file. Each name links to its definition, with any associated statement file beside it. This list does not record running Lean to interpret or verify those definitions.

Independent comparisons and proof-verification reports

Does the Lean express the advertised result?

MathVet and cert-machine agree on how much of the advertised result the Lean statements express.

MathVet and Carlos Toledo’s cert-machine independently assessed whether this family’s Lean statements express the whole result OpenAI describes in its catalogue. These are assessments of the family as a whole, not of each paper theorem separately.

MathVet finds that the Lean statements express or imply the whole advertised result (their term: “full”).

Their note: None for the headline; uniform n-rectifiability is encoded as big pieces of Lipschitz images (standard equivalent form). The variation / principal-value corollary is not stated.

Definitions the group asks readers to compare with the paper: ADRegularWithConstant, RieszL2BoundedWithConstant (real-valued f, vector-valued hard truncation truncated), BallImageConclusion are custom but standard in form; AdmissibleRadius uses Metric.ediam μ.support

“full”, in their words: The challenge statements imply the headline claim after unpacking definitions or one routine step.

Their method: An independent, model-assisted, pre-referee reading of each family’s challenge statements against its headline claim under a published rubric (PROTOCOL.md), with its own Comparator runs per challenge.

cert-machine finds that the Lean statements express or imply the whole advertised result (their term: “MATCHES”).

“MATCHES”, in their words: The challenge statements state the headline as OpenAI wrote it.

Their method: Every Comparator challenge re-run on Linux with nanoda switched on, decided by a preregistered rule.

OpenAI’s own note on what its Lean covers

The formalized result proves that bounded Riesz transforms force quantitative uniform rectifiability in higher codimension. For $d\ge4$ and $2\le n\le d-2$, an $n$-Ahlfors–David regular measure whose positive hard truncations have one uniform $L^2$ operator bound has big pieces of Lipschitz images. The mass fraction and Lipschitz constant depend only on the dimensions and the stated regularity and operator bounds, and work at every support point and admissible radius, including unbounded support. The variation and principal-value corollary is not included.

Who ran the proof-verification program?

These groups report running Comparator with the release’s Lean statement files. For a configured theorem, it verifies OpenAI’s separate proof against the exact statement; some files instead configure definitions for comparison by name and type. Each row is the named group’s report. Atlas has not repeated the runs.

These reports do not list the software versions, proof-verification programs, axioms, time or memory in separate fields. Any such details in a report’s prose are reproduced below.
