GoKawiilAI-assisted proof of 51-year-old Spherical Hadwiger Conjecture published by Hunan University researchers
Mathematicians Wang and Wu of Hunan University released a preprint proving the Spherical Hadwiger Conjecture, an integral-geometry problem unsolved since 1974, using OpenAI Codex to help develop proof details, spot gaps, and draft the manuscript. The authors say they verified all AI-generated mathematical content themselves and take full responsibility for the final result, following disclosure practices similar to the Leiden Declaration guidelines for AI use in research.
