The e-positivity of $\mathrm{rowDiv}_k(e_μ)$

Awaiting detailed review

Actual v2 e-positivity manuscript discloses GPT and Lean assistance. The source does not isolate an AI-origin central symmetric-function argument sufficiently for inclusion.

The minimum number of vertices of a triangulation of $\mathbb{RP}^5$

Awaiting detailed review

The claimed twenty-four-vertex minimum has a topological reduction and finite exact certificates, not an end-to-end Lean theorem. Codex assistance in exploration, code and preparation does not specify which retained central construction or obstruction originated with AI.

Structure-Aware Equivalence for Evaluating Autoformalized Statements

Excluded

Structure-aware equivalence scoring is an autoformalization evaluation with generated diagnostic pairs, not a new AI-discovered mathematical theorem. Benchmark labels do not establish discovery.

Efficient Quantum Algorithm for Mixed-State Quantum Geometry

Awaiting detailed review

Mixed-state geometry algorithm has explicit spectral-gap or bounded-response promises. Generic AI development/checking assistance, including a conditional bulk-edge normalization lemma, does not establish the central AI-origin algorithmic insight. Available-on-request code is not a completed inspected check.

Random Tournaments Are Asymptotically Almost Surely Link-irregular

Awaiting detailed review

Random-tournament link-irregularity result has no identified central AI contribution in the retrieved version. No eligibility inferred from formalization discovery metadata.

Thin-Layer Dichotomy in Three-Phase Mullins-Sekerka Flow: Gap Dynamics and Composite Interfaces

Excluded

Instantaneous fixed-mode linearization in concentric circular geometries; signed-mode and positive-tension assumptions retained. AI assistance is documented for drafting/editing and Lean formalization, without central mathematical origin of the thin-layer dichotomy. Formal checking alone does not establish eligibility.

SqueezeBench: Saturation-Resilient Evaluation of Mathematical Capability

Excluded

Benchmark agents improved formal records without exceeding published mathematical bounds, explicitly according to the paper. Additional models and accepted submissions do not establish a new central-AI mathematical discovery.

Mario Bonk Cannon-conjecture seminar lead

Awaiting detailed review

The community hub links a Quasiworld seminar by Mario Bonk. Retrieval exposed only a minimal video shell, not the talk content or transcript. A seminar listing does not establish a completed check or explanation of the exact AI contribution. Carry the lead forward; no rating change.

SemantEq: Faithful Bidirectional Equivalence of Formal Statements

Excluded

Statement-equivalence method and benchmark. Models implemented tools, screened labels, wrote evaluated proofs and found flaws in an earlier definition. The current source does not identify a retained central-AI mathematical result distinct from method development and benchmark checking.

A frame-indifferent rank-one convex function in three dimensions which is not quasiconvex

Awaiting detailed review

New frame-indifferent rank-one-convex but non-quasiconvex construction has explicit 3×3 and local-strain scope. Claude assists construction/proofs and writes Lean under human statement/strategy guidance, but the source does not allocate a specific retained central mathematical idea to AI. Hold that origin question separately from reported human and Lean checking.

Hitting time for loose Hamilton cycles in the random hypergraph process

Awaiting detailed review

GPT assisted the extension from 3-uniform to general uniformity, and gaps found during formalization were repaired with GPT assistance. The exact AI-origin step and essential human repairs need allocation before retaining a distinct new contribution.

Residue Sums Modulo Products of Two Distinct Odd Primes

Awaiting detailed review

AI used for literature, computations and proof checking; another author uses it only for language editing. The residue-sum result’s central AI mathematical origin is not identified. Available hand proofs and data do not settle that allocation.

Finite Mass Response to Vanishing Perturbations at Cauchy Horizons

Awaiting detailed review

Finite delayed mass response at a critical Cauchy-horizon surface-gravity relation, with bounded mass and local finite-energy weak extensions. Source-specific central AI origin is not documented in the retrieved manuscript; formalization alone cannot establish it.

When Do Gaussian Priors Fail? A Latent Geometry Investigation of RL Fine-Tuning

Awaiting detailed review

Numerical prior-geometry/latent-collapse comparison and a partial Lean theory skeleton. Its finite-resource model and uncertainty are not universal physics laws, and a central AI-origin theoretical contribution is not established.

CosmoAgent: AI Agent for Theoretical Cosmology

Excluded

Read v2: mainly recovers known scalar-field models and modest background-likelihood gains. Best nominal ΔAIC=-3.328 but ΔBIC=+7.699; one mock is not a global significance calibration. The shown induced-gravity fit fails a no-ghost condition and the Gauss–Bonnet example has unresolved tensor-speed/validity issues. No new viable physical theory established.

FeynFacet: AI agents for analytic NLO QCD

Awaiting detailed review

Potential central-AI derivation of new NLO transverse-spin-transfer hard functions. Read v1 and current pinned artifact: symbolic and sampled route comparisons share generated amplitudes, scalar reduction and assembly. The 26 October artifact warns that unpatched Kira 3.1 can silently return wrong reductions on Apple Silicon and requires regeneration after correction. Reconcile the published coefficients with a validated generator/binary and rerun provenance before an editorial decision. The notice does not refute results produced on unaffected or validated patched builds.

Sharpness-aware Orthogonalized Momentum Algorithms

Parabolic Rectifiable Reifenberg for Measures

Excluded

The author explicitly owns the mathematics and proof architecture/sketches; LLMs wrote Lean code, documentation and announcement text. This disclosure does not establish central AI mathematical origin.

Rainbow maps and the number of graceful labelings of trees

Awaiting detailed review

Extensive directed AI use is disclosed, but the particular new rainbow-map construction/counting argument is not allocated to AI. Check the exact central contribution and prior graceful-labeling results.

When is greedy exact for weighted minimum 3-cut?

Awaiting detailed review

Claude assisted proof development/checking and formalization. Isolate which retained characterization or construction centrally originated with the model, rather than inferring eligibility from assistance.

Bounds for the univalent Bloch-Landau constant

Awaiting detailed review

Formalization and source retrieval succeeded; a specific centrally AI-origin improvement to the univalent Bloch–Landau bound still needs contribution-level allocation and prior-bound comparison.

BFGS can converge to non-Clarke-stationary points with positive probability

Coordinate systems and maximal order complexity in Banach lattices

Awaiting detailed review

GPT reportedly largely produced the order-basis proof from a suggested Mazur-style strategy and supplied technical constructions from earlier human ideas. Allocate the retained construction/proof novelty against that prior strategy, including any essential human repairs, before a keep decision.

QEDIA: Quantum Program Verification in Lean

Excluded

Quantum-program verification infrastructure and reproduction of specified algorithms, rather than an identified new centrally AI-origin quantum algorithm.

The Bloch constant is strictly smaller than the Ahlfors--Grunsky value

Excluded

The source says the mathematical arguments were independently developed, checked and written by the author. Editing, exploratory discussions and Codex formalization do not establish central AI origin.

Limit shapes for centrally excited walks

Excluded

Read revised v2: authors supplied the main ideas and directed mathematical development. AI assistance with proof questions, exposition and simulations does not establish a central model-origin contribution.
