Axiom uses AI agent swarms to fully formalize the Classification of Finite Simple Groups in Lean in 24 days: about 43.1M lines, the first complete computer-checked proof of the longest proof in math history
AI math company Axiom announced on Oct 27 that swarms of dozens of AI agents formalized the Classification of Finite Simple Groups (CFSG; the original proof runs about 15,000 pages across 500+ articles by about 100 mathematicians) in the Lean proof assistant in 24 days, producing about 43.1M lines of Lean and 2.05M declarations, with the repo public on GitHub. The work surfaced 34 noteworthy deviations from the published record, and AxiomProver produced a new alternative argument for the Unbalanced Group Theorem.

Claude Completes the First Formalized Proof of Fermat's Last Theorem
Anthropic announced that Claude completed the first machine-verified formalization of Fermat's Last Theorem, a project experts expected would take years. The Lean proof exceeds 13 million lines—the largest ever written—and also formalizes more than 29,000 supporting theorems. Anthropic frames it as a major step toward AI-assisted verification of mathematical knowledge.

Anthropic Open-Sources FlashProve: zkSNARK Proofs That a Reply Came From the Committed Model, About 110 Tokens/s for 400B Llama 4 Maverick on One H100
Anthropic's Frontier Red Team published a research post on November 2 and open-sourced FlashProve under Apache 2.0. A model provider commits to hidden weights once, then attaches a zero-knowledge proof to each reply, so a user without the weights can check on an ordinary CPU that the reply really came from that model. That targets routing services that quietly swap in cheaper models and tampered token streams. Anthropic reports about 110 tokens/s on one H100 for Llama 4 Maverick (400B MoE, 4-bit), proofs of about 19 MB per 1,024-token request, and roughly 70-95x the GPU time of vLLM inference. It is an unmaintained research prototype limited to 1,024-token contexts and greedy decoding of an integer version of the model. Anthropic engineer Steve Weis shared the release on X.
