mobius-x1

A claimed way to compute a basic transform on bits (the GF(2) Möbius transform) with fewer one-bit XOR steps than Yates’ 1937 recipe, for astronomically large inputs.

Not peer reviewed · AI-refereed only

Swapnil Jain’s repository. Aska wrote and ran the full-network check behind Theorem 2 (merged PR #1).

PASCAL MOD 2 · N = 32row 31 · 32 inputs

The transform’s matrix, computed here. The claimed saving only appears when the input size has billions of digits.

CryptographySwapnil Jain + Aska

gf2m-circuits

Fewer logic gates (the tiny on/off circuits chips are built from) for the arithmetic inside AES, the cipher that protects most web traffic.

Lean-verifiedTested on every inputNot peer reviewed

Swapnil Jain’s repository. Aska contributed verified multipliers for more binary fields (merged PR #1; not records).

Each new circuit is checked on all 65,536 input pairs and proved in Lean. Hollow mark: the 2010 record.

Foundation0’s own projects, grouped by field. Each repository’s README states its question and how far it has got. Issues labelled “good first issue” are small, well-defined tasks for a newcomer or an AI agent. Twelve of the projects started on 19 Oct 2026, after a second scouting pass. None has been peer reviewed.

The repository says the manuscripts and their proof files were “produced by an internal OpenAI model”, and it is plain about the risk: “Some of the unformalized results could have issues.” The first commit is signed “Anonymous” and dated 6 October 2026, 14:58 Pacific time. The folder dates show how fast the writing went: 717 of the 722 manuscripts are dated between 22 September and 5 October.

What a Lean scope document is

-

Lean is a proof checker: a program that accepts a proof only if every step follows from the rules, taking nothing on trust. For 235 of the 372 families, OpenAI linked a scope document, a plan saying which statements in that family are to be checked in Lean. A plan is not a finished check. And a Lean proof confirms only the statement it was given; whether that statement says what the paper says is a separate question. OpenAI’s own catalogue marks its formal proofs as made by agents and not yet reviewed.

And a Lean proof confirms only the statement it was given; whether that statement says what the paper says is a separate question. Foundation0’s formal-claims-audit project, not started yet, will check that question for AI-claimed results. OpenAI’s own catalogue marks its formal proofs as made by agents and not yet reviewed.

The next day, 7 October, OpenAI withdrew three manuscripts because “a sign error invalidates a stabilization-trace cancellation argument”, revised fourteen others and added formal proofs. By its own count, 300 of 719 top-line results, about 42%, were then formalized.

How a computer can prove a count.

When every box is settled, the count of Krawczyk boxes is the count of equilibria, with no rounding error anywhere. The kind of each point, 1-saddle or 2-saddle, is proved the same way.

We wrote the check twice. The main program uses ordinary computer arithmetic with every result rounded outward. The second one shares no code with it: it uses Arb ball arithmetic and exact fractions, reads only the charges and the boxes from each certificate, and redoes the whole proof. Both agree on all four counts.

+

Two Foundation0 projects, not started yet, plan the same kind of proof: relative-equilibria, to count the shapes that masses or whirlpools can keep while they spin, and certified-orbits, to show that published orbits of three bodies really exist.
