OpenAI reports prime-degree torus-packet equidistribution

For each fixed prime degree at least five, volume-weighted packets of totally real fields equidistribute to Haar measure as their multiplier-order discriminants grow, with no escape of mass, arbitrary local homothety type, and varying fields allowed.

Sources for this record

What was already known

The higher-dimensional Duke problem asked for equidistribution of complete packets of diagonal orbits; the manuscript distinguishes a fixed local homothety packet from collections attached only to a multiplier order.

AI involvement AI-led

OpenAI credits itself as manuscript author and states that its internal frontier model produced the results in this release. Individual human input is not detailed enough to establish task-only autonomy.

OpenAI is named as author on the manuscript, and its release attributes the results to an internal frontier model. The individual human input is not detailed enough to establish autonomy.

Importance Notable

Establishes the prime-degree packet form of a higher-dimensional arithmetic equidistribution problem.

Limitations

The selected claim covers fixed prime degree at least five and complete volume-weighted packets. The Lean scope does not establish quartic or sextic results.

Technical verification Formal (Lean 4)

OpenAI reports a Lean proof matching the selected claim.

Formal checking

The pinned Lean note identifies equidistribution and tightness for every fixed prime degree at least five under the stated local-type and discriminant assumptions.

Checking a formal statement does not establish that it matches the original problem.

Human understanding Few

Few is the default when evidence for a higher level is insufficient. No named person is documented as explaining the central argument for this assessed contribution.
