“The Gold Rush in AI4Math, II: What are signatures of AI-assisted proofs?”
arxiv.org/abs/2611.08412
How do AI-assisted proofs differ from human-written ones? We assemble a dataset of 8,281 mathematical papers spanning different forms and levels of AI involvement. To represent each paper, we introduce the graph of immediate proof support (GIPS). Our study reveals a qualitative gradient of AI involvement in the resulting feature space and identifies statistically significant features (“signatures”) of AI assistance in developing and organizing mathematical arguments.

I asked ChatGPT to rank the difficulty of the Millennium Prize problems. It lists P vs NP as #1 difficult one, because it requires "a fundamentally new kind of mathematics." Given today's news, I am really curious who (human or AI) will make the next breakthrough on P vs NP ~

Is substantive AI use in math research increasing? Which subfields are most affected? What problems have been solved? Who is writing them—and which AI models are they using? An empirical study of 32,944 math arXiv submissions from Mar. 1–Aug. 20, 2026.
On Thursday's Joint Statistical Meeting (10:00am, session 436), I will present discoveries on 83K statistical papers (including topic modeling of paper abstracts and network modeling of author-author co-citation relationships).
Our paper "Predicting returns with text data" is highlighted for JSM 2020.
