Submitter: Kim Morrison.

Notes: Uses the existing Mathlib definition of the Chudnovsky series and asks for the missing identity with pi inverse. The Chudnovsky formula states 1/π = (12 / 640320^(3/2)) · ∑_{n=0}^∞ (-1)^n · (6n)! · (545140134·n + 13591409) / ((3n)! · (n!)^3 · 640320^(3n)).

Source: https://arxiv.org/abs/1809.00533

Informal solution: Prove that the Chudnovsky series 1/π = (12 / 640320^(3/2)) · ∑_{n=0}^∞ (-1)^n · (6n)! · (545140134·n + 13591409) / ((3n)! · (n!)^3 · 640320^(3n)) holds, e.g. following Milla's detailed complex-analytic proof.

Entrywise exponential of a PSD matrix is PSD

posSemidef_map_exp

Submitter: Kim Morrison.

Notes: Part of the Schur-Polya-Loewner theory of entrywise functions preserving PSD. The proof uses the Schur product theorem iteratively: exp_⊙(A) = ∑ A^{⊙k}/k!, each Hadamard power is PSD, and the convergent series of PSD matrices is PSD.

Source: I.J. Schoenberg, Positive definite functions on spheres, 1942.

Informal solution: Write exp(a_{ij}) as the convergent series ∑ (a_{ij})^k / k!. The matrix with entries (a_{ij})^k is the k-fold Hadamard product A^{⊙k}, which is PSD by iterated Schur product. The partial sums are nonneg combinations of PSD matrices, hence PSD. PSD is a closed condition, so the limit is PSD.

Source: I. Schur, Bemerkungen zur Theorie der beschränkten Bilinearformen, 1911; A. Oppenheim, Inequalities connected with definite Hermitian forms, 1930.

von Neumann double commutant theorem

vonNeumann_doubleCommutant_tfae

Submitter: Kim Morrison.

Notes: The classical double commutant theorem: for a unital *-subalgebra of bounded operators on a complex Hilbert space, equality with the double commutant is equivalent to closedness in the weak operator topology and to closedness in the strong operator topology. WOT and SOT live on Mathlib's irreducible type copies of H →L[ℂ] H (`ContinuousLinearMapWOT` and `PointwiseConvergenceCLM`), so each closure condition is phrased on the image of the carrier under the canonical inclusion.

Source: J. von Neumann, Zur Algebra der Funktionaloperationen und Theorie der normalen Operatoren, Math. Ann. 102 (1930), 370-427.

Informal solution: One direction: centralizers are WOT-closed, so any set equal to its double commutant is WOT-closed; norm topology refines WOT refines SOT for continuity of evaluation, and closedness under a finer convex topology is implied by closedness under a coarser one (via Hahn-Banach for convex sets). Hard direction: given a unital *-subalgebra S that is SOT-closed, for any T in S'' and any finite family of vectors use the amplification S ⊗ 1_n acting diagonally on H^n together with the projection onto the closure of (S ⊗ 1_n) applied to the vector to produce a net in S converging SOT to T.

Schur-Weyl duality: S_k image equals centralizer of GL(V) image

symAction_range_eq_centralizer_glAction

Submitter: Kim Morrison.

Notes: One direction of Schur-Weyl duality: the subalgebra of End(V^⊗k) generated by the S_k action (permuting factors) equals the centralizer of the subalgebra generated by the diagonal GL(V) action. Hypothesis `Invertible (k! : R)` over a field is exactly the Maschke condition for R[S_k].

Source: H. Weyl, The Classical Groups, 1939; I. Schur, Über die rationalen Darstellungen der allgemeinen linearen Gruppe, 1927.

Informal solution: Classical proof: any T ∈ End(V^⊗k) commuting with GL(V) acts the same way on tensors related by g^⊗k for every g, and by polarization (which uses k! invertible) the subalgebra {g^⊗k : g ∈ GL(V)} linearly spans the image of Sym^k(End V) in End(V^⊗k). Together with the semisimplicity of R[S_k] (Maschke, from the same k! hypothesis) and double commutant for finite-dimensional semisimple algebras, T lies in the R-subalgebra generated by the S_k action.

Schur-Weyl duality: GL(V) image equals centralizer of S_k image

glAction_range_eq_centralizer_symAction

Submitter: Kim Morrison.

Notes: The other direction of Schur-Weyl duality: the subalgebra of End(V^⊗k) generated by the diagonal GL(V) action equals the centralizer of the subalgebra generated by the S_k action.

Source: H. Weyl, The Classical Groups, 1939; I. Schur, Über die rationalen Darstellungen der allgemeinen linearen Gruppe, 1927.

Informal solution: By polarization over R with k! invertible, the subalgebra generated by {g^⊗k : g ∈ GL(V)} is precisely the image of Sym^k(End V), i.e., the endomorphisms of V^⊗k fixed by the S_k-action on tensor factors of End V. An endomorphism of V^⊗k fixed by this action is exactly one commuting with the S_k action on V^⊗k.

Existence of a 64-dim irreducible g₂-representation with 14 tensor-square isotypic components

g2_irrep_tensor_square_decomp

Submitter: Kim Morrison.

Notes: g₂ is the smallest exceptional Lie algebra, defined here by the Serre construction (Mathlib's `LieAlgebra.g₂`). The formal statement is existential: it asks for some 64-dimensional irreducible representation whose tensor square has 14 isotypic components. In the intended solution, one constructs such a witness using the highest-weight representation with highest weight ω₁ + ω₂ (the sum of the two fundamental weights). The U(g)-module structure on V ⊗ V used in the statement comes from lifting the Lie action via the universal enveloping algebra.

Source: Classical: representation theory of the exceptional Lie algebra g₂.

Informal solution: Construct V as the irreducible 64-dim representation V(ω₁+ω₂).

Existence of a 779247-dim irreducible e₈-representation with 40 tensor-square isotypic components

e8_irrep_tensor_square_decomp

Submitter: Kim Morrison.

Notes: e₈ is the largest exceptional Lie algebra (dim 248), defined here by the Serre construction (Mathlib's `LieAlgebra.e₈`). The formal statement is existential: it asks for some 779247-dimensional irreducible representation whose tensor square has 40 isotypic components. In the intended solution, one constructs such a witness using the highest-weight representation with highest weight ω₁ + ω₈ (the sum of the first and last fundamental weights, in Bourbaki labelling). The U(g)-module structure on V ⊗ V used in the statement comes from lifting the Lie action via the universal enveloping algebra.

Source: Classical: representation theory of the exceptional Lie algebra e₈.

Informal solution: Construct V as V(ω₁+ω₈), the unique 779247-dim irrep of e₈. Tensor square (LiE-verified) has 40 distinct simple summand isomorphism classes (155 components with multiplicity), with the smallest being the trivial 1-dim, the 248-dim adjoint (mult 2), the 3875-dim V(ω₁), and so on up to the 85,424,220,000-dim summand.

Cerf's theorem: every self-diffeomorphism of S3 is smoothly isotopic to a linear isometry

cerf_gamma_four

Submitter: Kim Morrison.

Notes: Cerf's 1968 theorem, the X = point (unparameterized) case of the Smale conjecture. Stated as the existence of a smooth isotopy [0,1] x S3 -> S3 from f to a linear isometry, witnessed by a smooth slice-inverse to encode the diffeomorphism property of each slice without needing a topology on Diffeomorph.

Source: J. Cerf, Sur les diffeomorphismes de la sphere de dimension trois, Lecture Notes in Mathematics 53, Springer (1968).

Informal solution: Cerf's original proof uses pseudo-isotopy theory: a self-diffeomorphism of S3 extends to a pseudo-isotopy of D4, and Cerf's theorem on the triviality of pi_0 of the pseudo-isotopy space in dimension 4 implies the extension is isotopic to a genuine isotopy. Hatcher (1983) reproved this as a corollary of the full Smale conjecture using configurations of 2-spheres.

Smale conjecture (Hatcher) in relative parameterized form

smale_conjecture

Submitter: Kim Morrison.

Notes: Hatcher's 1983 theorem that Diff(S3) is homotopy equivalent to O(4), stated in the relative-parameterized-family form (families on a compact manifold-with-boundary X whose boundary already factors through O(4) deform rel boundary to a family fully factoring through O(4)).

Informal solution: Hatcher proves Diff(S3) is homotopy equivalent to O(4) by analyzing configurations of 2-spheres in S3 (the bigon criterion) and deducing by induction that every self-diffeomorphism is isotopic to a linear one, with all higher parameterized versions handled by the same incompressible-surface machinery.

Gleason's theorem (finite-dimensional)

gleason_theorem_finite

Submitter: Kim Morrison.

Notes: Gleason's theorem in finite dimensions: every frame function on the orthogonal projections of a complex Hilbert space of dimension at least 3 is given by P ↦ Tr(ρ P) for the unique density operator ρ. Stated using a bespoke `FrameFunction` structure (non-negative, additive on orthogonal projection pairs, normalized at the identity) and the standard Mathlib trace `LinearMap.trace`. Finite additivity on orthogonal pairs already implies countable additivity in finite dimensions, so the hypothesis matches Gleason's original σ-additive frame functions.

Source: A. M. Gleason, Measures on the closed subspaces of a Hilbert space, J. Math. Mech. 6 (1957), 885-893.

Informal solution: Gleason's original proof analyses regular frame functions on the unit sphere of R^3 by showing they are continuous and then quadratic, then promotes the resulting positive quadratic form on every 3-dimensional real subspace of H to a positive operator ρ on H whose diagonal in any orthonormal basis recovers the frame function, with Tr(ρ) = μ(I) = 1 ensuring ρ is a density operator.

Gleason's theorem (separable Hilbert space)

gleason_theorem_separable

Submitter: Kim Morrison.

Notes: Gleason's theorem for a separable complex Hilbert space H of dimension at least 3, in Gleason's original `frame function on the unit sphere' formulation: any non-negative function on the unit sphere whose values sum to 1 along every Hilbert basis is given by x ↦ re ⟨x, ρ x⟩ for some positive bounded operator ρ. The Lean conclusion does not assert that ρ is trace-class with Tr(ρ) = 1; stating that would require trace-class infrastructure not yet at this Mathlib pin. This side-steps the absence of Schatten 1 / trace-class infrastructure in Mathlib at the time of writing.

Source: A. M. Gleason, Measures on the closed subspaces of a Hilbert space, J. Math. Mech. 6 (1957), 885-893.

Informal solution: Reduce to the real 3-dimensional case via restriction to real subspaces of H, where Gleason's continuity argument plus an analysis of regular frame functions on S^2 gives a positive quadratic form. Patch these forms together using rotation-invariance and the assumed basis-sum normalization to obtain a globally defined positive bounded operator ρ on H reproducing the frame function on every unit vector.

exists_nonisotopic_link

Submitter: Kim Morrison.

Notes: Warmup for the knot-theory benchmark. Asks for two oriented smooth two-component links in R^3 that are not ambient-isotopic. The benchmark uses an orientation-sensitive notion of isotopy induced by the parametrizations, so the Gauss linking integral is a natural real-valued invariant distinguishing the unlink (lk = 0) from the Hopf link (lk = +/- 1, depending on orientation choice).

Source: Classical; see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linking_number.

Informal solution: Take L1 = unlink (two unit circles in parallel planes) and L2 = Hopf link, with explicit orientations induced by the parametrizations. Define lk(K, L) by the Gauss double integral (1/4 pi) int int <K(s) - L(t), K'(s) x L'(t)> / |K(s) - L(t)|^3 ds dt. Prove lk is invariant under ambient isotopy of oriented links by exhibiting it as the integral of a closed 2-form on R^3 minus the origin pulled back along (K, L), so Stokes-style arguments show invariance. Compute lk(unlink) = 0 and choose the Hopf-link orientations so that lk(Hopf) = 1. Conclude L1 and L2 are not ambient-isotopic.

Existence of a non-isotopic pair of oriented knots

exists_nonisotopic_knots

Submitter: Kim Morrison.

Notes: Asks for two oriented smooth knots in R^3 that are not ambient-isotopic. The benchmark uses an orientation-sensitive notion of isotopy induced by the parametrizations. Mathlib has no knot-invariant infrastructure, so the model must construct an isotopy invariant from scratch. Suggested: the Alexander polynomial / knot determinant, or the Fox 3-coloring count, both of which distinguish the unknot from the trefoil.

Source: Classical; see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knot_invariant.

Informal solution: Take K1 = unknot (round circle in the xy-plane) and K2 = right-handed trefoil parametrized as t -> (sin t + 2 sin 2t, cos t - 2 cos 2t, -sin 3t). Construct an ambient-isotopy invariant; the simplest computable choice is the number of Fox 3-colorings of any diagram of K, which counts homomorphisms from the knot group to D_3. The unknot admits 3 such colorings (all monochromatic); the trefoil admits 9. Hence the two knots are not ambient-isotopic.

Existence of a chiral oriented knot

exists_chiral_knot

Submitter: Kim Morrison.

Notes: Challenge problem of the knot-theory benchmark. Asks for an oriented smooth knot whose image is not ambient-isotopic to its mirror image (under reflection through the xy-plane), using the benchmark's orientation-sensitive notion of isotopy induced by the parametrization. The model must construct an ambient-isotopy invariant that takes different values on a knot and its mirror -- the knot determinant and Alexander polynomial alone do not suffice, since the figure-eight is amphichiral in the usual unoriented sense.

Source: Classical; see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chirality_(mathematics) and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trefoil_knot.

Informal solution: Take K = right-handed trefoil. Construct the knot signature sigma(K) from a Seifert matrix V as the signature of V + V^T, and verify that sigma is an ambient-isotopy invariant of knots that negates under mirror reflection. Compute sigma(right trefoil) = -2, so sigma(K) != sigma(mirror K) and K is chiral. (Alternatively, use the Jones polynomial V_K(t) = -t^{-4} + t^{-3} + t^{-1}, which is not symmetric under t <-> t^{-1}.)

Character values of finite groups lie in cyclotomic fields

brauer_character_in_cyclotomic

Submitter: Kim Morrison.

Notes: For a finite group G of exponent n, every value of every complex character of G lies in (the image of) the cyclotomic field ℚ(ζₙ). Stated uniformly for the fixed group G: there is a ring embedding φ : CyclotomicField (Monoid.exponent G) ℚ →+* ℂ whose range contains tr(ρ(g)) for every finite-dimensional complex representation ρ of G and every g. This is a corollary of Brauer's induction theorem; the full splitting-field statement (every irreducible representation has a ℚ(ζₙ)-form) is strictly stronger and requires more scalar-extension scaffolding than mathlib currently exposes cleanly.

Source: R. Brauer, On the representation of a group of order g in the field of g-th roots of unity, Amer. J. Math. 67 (1945).

Informal solution: Choose an embedding φ : ℚ(ζₙ) ↪ ℂ once and for all for the fixed group G. Then apply Brauer's induction theorem uniformly: every complex character of G is a ℤ-combination of characters induced from elementary subgroups, and those induced character values lie in φ(ℚ(ζₙ)). Hence for every finite-dimensional complex representation ρ of G and every g ∈ G, tr(ρ(g)) lies in φ.range.

Existence of an order-10200960 group with a 22-dim irrep whose tensor square has 4 isotypic components

m23_irrep_tensor_square_decomp

Submitter: Kim Morrison.

Notes: Existential: a finite group G of order 10200960 (= |M₂₃|) with a 22-dimensional irreducible complex representation V whose tensor square (with the diagonal G-action) has exactly 4 isotypic components. Both the MonoidAlgebra ℂ G action on V and on V ⊗[ℂ] V are bound explicitly, with IsScalarTower and an explicit diagonal-action equation g•(v⊗w) = (g•v)⊗(g•w) pinning the V⊗V action. The intended witness is M₂₃ acting on its 22-dim irreducible: V ⊗ V = 1 ⊕ V ⊕ W₂₃₀ ⊕ Λ²V. While the formal statement does not technically require constructing M₂₃ and studying its representation theory, we suspect that in practice it does.

Source: É. Mathieu, Sur les fonctions cinq fois transitives de 24 quantités, J. Math. Pures Appl. (1873); ATLAS of Finite Groups, M₂₃ character table.

Informal solution: Realise M₂₃ as a subgroup of S₂₃ (e.g. via the Steiner system S(4,7,23) or as the automorphism group of a ternary Golay code construction). Take V to be the 22-dimensional deleted permutation representation. By 4-transitivity Sym²V is the permutation representation on the 23 choose 2 = 253 unordered pairs, decomposing as 1 + V + W₂₃₀ where W is the unique 230-dimensional irrep; Λ²V is irreducible of dimension 231, giving four pairwise non-isomorphic isotypic components in V⊗V.

Frobenius's theorem: the Frobenius kernel is normal

frobenius_kernel_isNormal

Submitter: Kim Morrison.

Notes: For a Frobenius group G acting transitively and faithfully on X with |X| ≥ 2, non-trivial point stabilisers, and the Frobenius condition (no non-identity element fixes more than one point), the set {1} ∪ {g | g fixes no point} is a normal subgroup. The only known proof uses Frobenius's induction-of-characters argument; no purely group-theoretic proof has been found in over a century.

Source: G. Frobenius, Über auflösbare Gruppen IV, Sitzungsber. Akad. Wiss. Berlin (1901).

Informal solution: Let H = stabilizer(x₀). Construct a class function θ on H of the form (1_H minus restriction of certain induced characters), and apply Frobenius reciprocity to lift θ to a generalised character of G whose kernel is exactly the Frobenius kernel K. The fact that the lift remains a virtual character (i.e. integer-valued combination of irreducibles) is exactly the content; that K is then a subgroup follows from K being a kernel.

Glauberman's Z* theorem for isolated involutions

glauberman_zStar

Submitter: Kim Morrison.

Notes: For a finite group G with an isolated involution t (no distinct conjugate of t commutes with t), there is a normal subgroup N ⊴ G of odd order such that every commutator g·t·g⁻¹·t⁻¹ lies in N — i.e., t is central in G/N. The hypothesis is the global form of isolation, equivalent to (but more self-contained than) the standard Sylow-local form. Proof uses modular Brauer character theory.

Source: G. Glauberman, Central elements in core-free groups, J. Algebra 4 (1966).

Informal solution: Take N = O(G), the largest normal subgroup of odd order. By Glauberman's modular character argument, isolation of t in C_G(t) implies t commutes with every element of G modulo O(G). The core of the proof is the analysis of the principal 2-block of G via Brauer characters and the Z*-style fusion theorem.

Schreier's conjecture: outer automorphism group of a finite simple group is solvable

schreier_conjecture

Submitter: Kim Morrison.

Notes: For every finite non-abelian simple group S, Out(S) := Aut(S)/Inn(S) is solvable. The statement requires the normality of Inn(S) ⊴ Aut(S), which is supplied by a local instance with a one-line proof (the conjugate of conj(s) by α equals conj(α(s))). Verified case-by-case via CFSG; no CFSG-free proof is known.

Source: O. Schreier, Über die Erweiterung von Gruppen II, Abh. Math. Sem. Univ. Hamburg 4 (1926); CFSG, completed c. 2004.

Informal solution: Use the classification of finite simple groups. For each family — alternating Aₙ, classical Lie type, exceptional Lie type, sporadic — inspect the known Out(S) and verify it is solvable. For Aₙ (n ≥ 5, n ≠ 6), Out = ℤ/2; for A₆, Out = (ℤ/2)²; for groups of Lie type, Out is built from diagonal, field, and graph automorphisms (each step solvable); for sporadics, Out is trivial or ℤ/2.

Possible orders of 5-transitive finite permutation groups

five_transitive_card_classification

Submitter: Kim Morrison.

Notes: If a finite group acts faithfully and 5-transitively on a set X with |X| ≥ 5, then |G| is one of n!, n!/2 (only when n ≥ 7), 95040 (= |M₁₂|), or 244823040 (= |M₂₄|). The 5 ≤ |X| hypothesis prevents the 5-transitivity condition from being vacuously satisfied (otherwise small groups like C₃ on Fin 3 would qualify). Classification is folklore via CFSG; no CFSG-free proof is known.

Source: Folklore via CFSG; classical work of Mathieu, Jordan; modern accounts in P. Cameron, Permutation Groups (1999).

Informal solution: By CFSG, the only finite 2-transitive groups are explicitly classified. Restricting to 5-transitive: the symmetric group Sₙ is k-transitive for all k ≤ n; the alternating group Aₙ is k-transitive for k ≤ n − 2 (so 5-transitive for n ≥ 7); among the Mathieu groups, M₁₂ is sharply 5-transitive on 12 points and M₂₄ is 5-transitive on 24 points. M₁₁ and M₂₃ are only 4-transitive and so do not appear. No other finite simple group has a 5-transitive permutation representation.

Polynomial decay rate of y' = -y^3

Notes: Asymptotic rate y t * sqrt t -> 1/sqrt 2 for the unique solution of y' = -y^3 on (0, infty) with y continuous at 0 and y 0 = 1.

Source: Standard ODE textbook exercise.

Informal solution: The closed form is y(t) = (1 + 2t)^{-1/2}, so y(t) sqrt(t) = sqrt(t / (1 + 2t)) -> 1/sqrt(2). Uniqueness on (0, infty) follows by Grönwall: any two solutions u, v of u' = -u^3 with the same right-limit 1 at 0 satisfy |u - v|' bounded by a Lipschitz constant on bounded subintervals, and continuity at 0 forces |u(t) - v(t)| -> 0 as t -> 0+, hence u = v.

Sturm separation theorem

sturm_separation

Submitter: Kim Morrison.

Notes: Between consecutive zeros of one solution of a second-order linear homogeneous ODE, any linearly independent solution has exactly one zero.

Source: C. Sturm, Mémoire sur les équations différentielles linéaires du second ordre, 1836.

Informal solution: On (a, b), y_1 has constant sign and never vanishes. The Wronskian W = y_1 y_2' - y_2 y_1' satisfies W' = -p W (Liouville), so W has constant sign on J. Hence (y_2 / y_1)' = -W / y_1^2 has constant sign and y_2 / y_1 is strictly monotone on (a, b). The Wronskian also forces y_2(a), y_2(b) ≠ 0 (else W(a) or W(b) would vanish, contradicting nonvanishing of W). If y_2 had no zero in (a, b), continuity gives sign(y_2(a)) = sign(y_2(b)); then y_2 / y_1 tends to the same infinite sign at both endpoints, contradicting strict monotonicity. Thus y_2 has a zero in (a, b). Uniqueness follows because a strictly monotone function can cross 0 at most once.

Notes: Characterises the spectrum of the Dirichlet Laplacian on [0,pi]: lambda is an eigenvalue iff lambda = n^2 for some positive natural n.

Source: Classical Sturm-Liouville theory.

Informal solution: Case-split on the sign of lambda. For lambda <= 0 only the zero solution satisfies both boundary conditions. For lambda > 0 the general solution is A sin(sqrt lambda x) + B cos(sqrt lambda x); the boundary conditions force B = 0 and sqrt lambda in N_{>0}.

Linear ODE with negative-real-part eigenvalues is asymptotically stable

Notes: If every eigenvalue of A has negative real part, every solution of x' = Ax decays to zero in norm.

Source: Classical linear stability theory; Hirsch-Smale-Devaney.

Informal solution: Pass to the complexification; bring A to (Schur or Jordan) upper-triangular form; the matrix exponential satisfies ||exp(tA)|| <= C(1+t^{n-1}) exp(alpha t) for any alpha greater than the maximum real part of the spectrum, hence decays to 0. For any t_1 > 0, x(t) = exp((t - t_1) A) x(t_1) for t >= t_1 by uniqueness of the linear IVP, so ||x(t)|| -> 0 as t -> infty.

Notes: 1D maximum principle: -u'' <= -v'' on (0,1) and u <= v at the endpoints implies u <= v on [0,1].

Source: Standard maximum-principle argument; Protter-Weinberger.

Informal solution: From -u'' <= -v'' we get (u - v)'' >= 0 on (0, 1), so u - v is convex on [0, 1] (using continuity at the endpoints). A convex function lies below its chord, which here is non-positive at both endpoints, so u - v <= chord <= 0.

Gaussian heat kernel solves the 1D heat equation

Notes: The Gaussian convolution u(t,x) = (4 pi t)^{-1/2} integral exp(-(x-y)^2/(4t)) f(y) dy satisfies the heat equation on (0, infty) x R, with initial datum f recovered as t -> 0+.

Source: Classical heat-equation theory.

Informal solution: Differentiate under the integral sign in t and twice in x; the kernel itself satisfies the heat equation, so does its convolution with f. As t -> 0+, the Gaussian is an approximate identity with total mass 1. After the change of variables y = x + sqrt(t) z, the integral becomes an average of f(x + sqrt(t) z) against a fixed integrable Gaussian weight; continuity of f at x and boundedness of f then give pointwise convergence to f(x) by dominated convergence in z.

Notes: An easy problem to get you on the leaderboard.

Source: Internal starter problem.

Informal solution: By computation.

theorem declaration uses `sorry`two_plus_two_eq_four : (2 : Nat) + 2 = 4 := 2 + 2 = 4 All goals completed! 🐙

CI regenerate-main check

ci_regenerate_main_check

Submitter: Kim Morrison.

Notes: Internal trivial problem used to exercise the regenerate-main workflow end-to-end.

Source: Internal CI check.

Informal solution: True is true.

theorem declaration uses `sorry`ci_regenerate_main_check : True := True All goals completed! 🐙

Appending a singleton increases the list length

list_append_singleton_length

Submitter: Kim Morrison.

Notes: A simple list problem that exercises notation in generated files.

Source: Internal starter problem.

Informal solution: Compute the length after append.

theorem declaration uses `sorry`list_append_singleton_length : (([1, 2] : List Nat).append [3]).length = 3 := ([1, 2].append [3]).length = 3 All goals completed! 🐙

Submitter: Kim Morrison.

Notes: Minimal example exercising def + theorem holes through the comparator def-hole pipeline.

Source: Unavailable.

Informal solution: Unavailable.

def declaration uses `sorry`foo : Nat := sorry
theorem declaration uses `sorry`foo_def : foo = 37 := sorry

instance-hole minimal example

instance_hole_example

Submitter: Kim Morrison.

Notes: Minimal example exercising instance + theorem holes; instances must be named so the comparator can address them.

Source: Unavailable.

Informal solution: Unavailable.
