Lean statement

Polynomial hitting lists for rational formulas

Lean is a language for mathematical statements and proofs that a computer can verify. This page shows one statement file from OpenAI’s release, possible paper matches and independent reports. The code-like names below identify the definitions or theorems selected by the proof-verification settings.

Theorem selected for verification: OAI.RationalHitting.main

Lean statement file: RationalHitting.leanShow on the mapFamily 116. OpenAI lists this as a main result in its Lean catalogue.

The Lean statement

The lines of the Lean statement that state the theorem, then the definitions in the file that it uses.

def MainStatement : Prop :=  ∃ (m : ℕ) (G : Machine m) (C k : ℕ), 0 < C ∧ 0 < k ∧    ∀ n s : ℕ, 1 ≤ n → 1 ≤ s → ∃ H : Output n,      H.dimension ≤ C * (n + s + 1) ^ k ∧      (encodeOutput H).length ≤ C * (n + s + 1) ^ k ∧      OutputsWithin G s (C * (n + s + 1) ^ k) H ∧ Hits s Htheorem main : MainStatement := by  sorry

A Lean statement states the theorem and leaves its proof as sorry on purpose. OpenAI’s proof is in a separate solution module, and a program called Comparator checks that proof against this statement.

Definitions needed to read it

Local definitions the statement names, followed through the definitions they name in turn. The match is by name in the source text, so a name reached only through notation can be missed; the full file is below.

Possible paper match, with no recorded review

Atlas selected this possible match by comparing words in the Lean statement with every statement in the family. No review of whether the statements mean the same thing is recorded.

Words of the Lean statement, its names split into words, that also appear in the theorem: advice, signed, works, oracle, denominators, finite, numerators, inverse and 17 more. Found in the paper’s title, which its main theorem states: polynomial. Shared only with the release’s name for the Lean statement or OpenAI’s note on it: variables and invertible.

Statements in Polynomial Hitting Lists for Noncommutative Rational Formulas come first because the release’s name for this Lean statement shares words with that paper’s title.

Theorem 1.1 of Polynomial Hitting Lists for Noncommutative Rational Formulas

Theorem

There are a deterministic Turing machine G and fixed positive integers C,k with the following property. Given 1^n,1^s, where n,s\geq1, the machine outputs a finite list \mathcal H_{n,s} of n-tuples of rational square matrices, in at most C(n+s+1)^k bit operations. The entire output, with signed binary numerators and positive binary denominators, has at most C(n+s+1)^k bits. For every nonzero admissible rational formula \Phi in n variables of size at most s, some tuple in \mathcal H_{n,s} is a defined evaluation of \Phi with invertible value.

The same list works for all such formulas, regardless of the bit lengths of their rational constants or their inverse depth. The generator receives no formula, oracle, randomness, or advice.

There are a deterministic Turing machine $G$ and fixed positive integers $C,k$ with the following property. Given $1^n,1^s$, where $n,s\geq1$, the machine outputs a finite list $\mathcal H_{n,s}$ of $n$-tuples of rational square matrices, in at most $C(n+s+1)^k$ bit operations. The entire output, with signed binary numerators and positive binary denominators, has at most $C(n+s+1)^k$ bits. For every nonzero admissible rational formula $\Phi$ in $n$ variables of size at most $s$, some tuple in $\mathcal H_{n,s}$ is a defined evaluation of $\Phi$ with invertible value.

How Atlas selects possible matches: it compares words in the Lean statement with every statement in the family. It also splits Lean names into words. The release’s label and note receive less weight; a main theorem wins a close match. If the Lean wording yields no clear match, Atlas uses the catalogue description. This selects passages to compare; it does not establish that they mean the same thing.

Reported Comparator runs

three independent groups report that Comparator accepted runs for this Lean statement file: Carlos Toledo’s cert-machine; MathVet; Neal McBurnett’s openai-math-lean-tooling. Each group reports its own Comparator run for this statement file. Atlas has not repeated the runs.

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

Carlos Toledo’s cert-machine

How they ran it, in their words

Every Comparator challenge re-run on Linux with nanoda switched on, decided by a preregistered rule; every family’s challenge statements read against OpenAI’s headline, clause by clause. Decider: Comparator (leanprover/comparator d03acab1 = tag v4.34.0, built with the release’s toolchain v4.34.1), lean4export 076e8e57, landrun 811cfff5, nanoda_lib 3a240721 — on GitHub’s Linux runners (.github/workflows/openai-math-kernel.yml), one j…

  • Accepted Their term: “CERTIFIED”.

    Re-run through Comparator with the independent nanoda kernel switched on: Lean’s kernel and nanoda both accept OpenAI’s solution.

MathVet

How they ran it, in their words

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. Its protocol describes a planned error-rate study; this import does not establish that the study has been completed.

  • Accepted Their term: “comparator-sandboxed-pass”.

    Re-run through Comparator in a sandboxed virtual machine: accepted.

    Reported 8 October 2026, at the release version shown here. Original verification report

Neal McBurnett’s openai-math-lean-tooling

How they ran it, in their words

Each challenge’s solution is built and checked by Comparator at the pinned release, on Lean leanprover/lean4:v4.34.1, recording the verdict, the check time and the peak memory; the run was still in progress at this snapshot (192 accepted, 224 pending).

  • Accepted Their term: “accepted”.

    Re-run through Comparator with Lean’s kernel: accepted (the check took 188 s; peak memory 6.6 GiB).

    Reported 11 October 2026, at the release version shown here. Original verification report

What an accepted Comparator run would establish

If Comparator is run under this configuration and accepts, the solution proves the configured theorem using only the allowed axioms, and the Lean kernel accepts every step.

This configuration lists no definition holes, so every definition the statement uses is compared as it is written in this file.

Allowed axioms: propext, Quot.sound, Classical.choice

Acceptance leaves open whether the Lean statement means the same thing as the paper’s theorem, whether the paper’s other claims are correct, and whether the result is new. Those questions require comparing the definitions and statements, reviewing the paper’s arguments, and reading the earlier literature.

Do family 116’s Lean statements express the advertised result?

These assessments compare all the family’s Lean statements with the whole result OpenAI describes in its catalogue. They do not assess this statement alone. Each group uses its own published rules.

Neither group finds that the Lean statements express or imply the whole advertised result. They describe what the statements express in different terms.

  • MathVet

    Finds part of it stated, or a narrower or weaker statement Their term: “partial”.

    Only a special case is stated, or a co-equal headline claim has no challenge statement. Their record

    Their note: Characteristic-zero existence of one hitting tuple (no complexity claim) and the poly-time rational hitting lists are stated; positive-characteristic constructions and the polynomial-bit-time bound for the single tuple are not.

    Definitions the group asks readers to compare with the paper: Hits quantifies over Admissible/Nonzero formulas via a hand-rolled relational Eval (inverse requires an actual two-sided inverse of the evaluated operand); machine is Mathlib Turing.TM0.Machine (Fin 4) (Fin (m+1)) with unary input n,1,s (time polynomial in n + s, not in a binary length)

  • Carlos Toledo’s cert-machine

    Finds part of it stated, or a narrower or weaker statement Their term: “NARROWER — UNLINKED”.

    The challenge statements state less than the headline; the missing part comes from a paper the Lean note does not link. Their record

    Their note: Every positive characteristic: no challenge states a hitting tuple over 𝔽_p or over fields of characteristic p (the October-4 manuscript 'Uniform Matrix Hitting Points in Every Positive Characteristic', which the scope note does not link). Also not asserted, but declared: the polynomial bit-time construction of the characteristic-zero tuple.

Read the complete assessments on the family page.

OpenAI’s own note on what this Lean statement covers

“Given the number of variables and a formula-size bound, one deterministic polynomial-time machine outputs rational matrix tuples of a common positive dimension. Every admissible nonzero formula within the size bound evaluates to an invertible matrix on some listed tuple. The matrix dimension, complete binary output length, and running time are all polynomially bounded.”

An AI agent drafted an interpretation of that note, classifying this statement as “states a paper’s theorem as the paper does”. No human review of the draft is recorded.

One Rational Matrix Hitting Point for Noncommutative Formulas

Theorem

There is a deterministic algorithm which, given integers n,s\ge1, constructs a tuple

\mathbf T_{n,s}\in\Mat_d(\Q)^n, \qquad d\le 2ns^2,

in time polynomial in n,s, measured in bit operations. The numerators and denominators of its entries have bit length O(\log(ns+1)+ns^2\log(n+1)). For every field F of characteristic zero and every 0\ne f\in\mathsf{Form}_{n,s}(F),

f(\mathbf T_{n,s})\ne0,

where the tuple is viewed over F through the canonical embedding \Q\hookrightarrow F. The construction uses d=2ns^2 when ns\ge2 and d=1 when n=s=1.
