A completed (3,4,∞) modular family gives a compact complex threefold diffeomorphic to S⁶

The 108-page manuscript claims that a completed (3,4,∞) family of complex two-tori produces a compact complex threefold diffeomorphic to S⁶. Exact finite identities and a stipulated local torsion mechanism have been reproduced locally. Analytic quotient and gluing, relative meridian signs, integral homology, and the headline theorem remain unresolved.

2026-07-29-maxwell-conjecture · Potential theory

Five positive point charges in R³ have at least 24 nondegenerate critical points, contradicting the proposed (5−1)² bound

The manuscript claims a configuration of five positive charges with at least 24 nondegenerate critical points of its Coulomb potential. Since (5−1)²=16, that would contradict the proposed Maxwell bound. The source is locked and five gates are mapped; no computation or mathematical audit has run in this lab.

Ten independent First Proof attempts form a calibration corpus; attempt 2 is the first blinded audit target

This case is not one theorem and will not receive a corpus-wide pass or fail. The locked packet contains ten independent proposed solutions. Attempt 2 is the first blinded negative-control target; OpenAI's public assessment is held out until the lab's status and evidence are frozen.

The stated Nesterov accelerated-gradient iterates converge to a minimizer for every L-smooth convex objective with a minimizer

The locked v2 manuscript claims point convergence of the Nesterov iterates, not merely convergence of objective values. Four load-bearing gates are mapped from the recurrence and energy inequality through the unique-cluster-point argument. No gate has run.

2026-07-10-openai-cycle-double-cover · Graph theory

Every finite bridgeless undirected graph has a cycle double cover

The three-page manuscript claims the cycle double cover conjecture and ships with a public Lean artifact. Both sources are locked. The first gate is prose-to-Lean statement and definition correspondence; the repository has not been built or mathematically audited in this lab.

2026-08-01-openai-nonsofic-group · Group theory

The unit group of the binary Leavitt algebra L_F₂(1,2) is not sofic

Chapter 3 of OpenAI's updated Ten Advances manuscript claims that the binary Leavitt algebra's unit group is not sofic. The pinned Lean commit predates a substantive prose revision by four days. Paper-to-Lean and version correspondence is therefore the first gate; no build or mathematical audit has run.
