Self-published and not peer-reviewed. Each note states what it certifies, what
it assumes, and what it will not claim; most ship the program that produced their numbers, and
several run the argument live in the page. One ranked sequence, most important first — not grouped by theme, and
since 13 August 2026 this index carries finished work only — the open notebooks,
including the directions that went nowhere, live in the
catalogue, with their verdicts, linked from every
group’s note.
One sequence, not themes. A report is on this list only if it claims something
in its own bytes and a battery inside the build names it; everything else ships unlisted and
is reachable by its own URL. Ordering weighs whether the object is external — someone
else’s theorem, paper, benchmark or model — over whether it is ours, and whether the
result is certified rather than illustrated.

Erdős #290 — for even d, disc(fd) is a square exactly at d = 4k(k+1), and here is why
A certified bracket for the constant c in van Doorn’s lower bound, seven
times narrower than the published 0.82 < c < 0.85: three Galois
densities the paper left open, pinned exactly, and two further exceptional degrees beyond
the range it computed. The degree pattern behind them — disc(fd) a perfect
square exactly at d = 4k(k+1) — is proved, not merely observed; whether the
group drops at each such degree stays a per-degree question, answered through
d = 120.

Maxwell said five charges allow at most 16 equilibria. At ε = 1/6, the counterexample’s 24 are now certified.
The refutation’s published evidence was floating-point computer algebra
— no code artifact, no certificate, no concrete ε. Pinned at the
paper’s own Figure 1 configuration: 24 pairwise-disjoint Krawczyk boxes, each
proving existence, local uniqueness and nondegeneracy of a critical point. And

An independent audit of OpenAI’s ten-proofs
The Lean repository behind “Ten Advances in Mathematics” —
built at its pinned commit (8666 jobs, exit 0), all twelve claimed declarations
kernel-checked to exactly three classical axioms, the repo’s own cross-kernel
Comparator protocol executed twelve-for-twelve, every challenge statement read against
the manuscript’s theorems, and the week-one revision diffed. At challenge level,
no statement weakening found — the discrepancies run the other way: the machine
sometimes proves more than the paper claims, and the audit surface under-reports its
own tree. With the shipped-configuration observation credited upstream, and the week
the human authors wrote back.

Erdős #1038: every printed decimal of the extremal constant is right — and the 30th digit is a rounding, not an expansion
An independent reimplementation — two interval backends, automatic
differentiation, Krawczyk for existence and uniqueness — confirms all 30 printed
decimals with certified enclosures to 40+ decimals, and finds the headline value’s
last digit is a half-up rounding presented with an expansion’s trailing ellipsis.

Testing that a verifier accepts correct answers does not tell you it rejects wrong ones
Every auto-scored benchmark rests on a verifier, and the verifier is almost
never audited — because auditing it looks circular. It isn’t, if you separate the
directions. Across 103 verifiers that rejected every mechanically-broken variant,
three independent adversaries still got past 13 of them, and five of those were rated sound
by the other two attackers.

Ten HumanEval items killed every mutant thrown at them — and still accepted a solution proven wrong
A perfect mutation score is not evidence that a test suite is sound. 14.7% of
HumanEval items accept a candidate an independent witness proves wrong, and mechanical
mutation rates 75% of those items as fine — so mutation-based sensitivity overstates
suite quality. The page is generated from the measurement, and every one of the 163 items is

One equilibrium, or three? — instance-level global-uniqueness certificates for mean-field games
A checker that takes a concrete finite-state mean-field game and earns one of
three verdicts in exact rational arithmetic: CERTIFIED-UNIQUE with the condition’s
slack as an exact margin, an honest REFUSED naming the failing hypothesis, or MULTIPLE
over the three machine-verified solutions of a published two-state game. The kernels run
live in the page with falsifier buttons; the theorem is Cecchin–Di
Persio–Fraccarolo’s, the witnesses are Cecchin–Dai
Pra–Fischer–Pelino’s, and the page says so. A second condition family

An exact-rational Sturm count certifies a complex eigenvalue pair at an
equilibrium, ruling out every Riemannian metric and every potential at once. Two exhibits:
softmax attention at engineered equilibria (224 of 864 certified; the d = 2
slice all-real by a theorem the census forced) and the Brusselator (37 of 60, an exact

The corridor totals are pinned. The operator split is not.
An illustrative air-taxi corridor instance from the published structure of the
Rio de Janeiro urban-air-mobility ConOps, solved in exact rational arithmetic: one
scenario mathematically certified unique with an exact margin of 1, and one where the
point-uniqueness certificate is honestly REFUSED — corridor totals pinned exactly,
the two-operator assignment exhibited as a verified one-dimensional face of equally valid
equilibria. The published verifier recomputes every number and ends with two mutation
controls. In aviation “certified” is the regulator’s word; everything
certified here is mathematics, and the page says so on its face.

How this shop runs — directing AI agents under falsifiable verification
The methods essay. An agent’s output is a claim, never a result: no
check counts until it has been seen failing on a deliberately broken copy, every agent
carries a failure vocabulary that is scored as success, and the checks themselves are
probed for vacuous passes — greens that verified almost nothing. Every number in
the essay is a dated record rather than a live readout; the incidents are real, and the
one still open is on the errata.
