Proving Olympiad Algebraic Inequalities without Human Demonstrations — Wei et al. (2024) (arXiv:2406.14219, 2024)
What this evaluates
Evaluates the ability of automated theorem provers and LLMs to formally prove complex algebraic inequalities at the International Mathematical Olympiad level using a deductive search engine in Lean.
Datasets
- MO-INT-20 — total 20; splits: test (20)
Metrics
number of solved problems(primary) — range: other- Count of problems successfully proven within the 90-minute time limit out of the total 20 problems.
Input / output format
Input: Algebraic inequality problems translated into Lean formal language.
Output: A complete formal proof in Lean that successfully verifies the inequality.
Scoring recipe
solved_count = 0
for problem in test_set:
proof = prover.generate_proof(problem, time_limit=90*60)
if lean_verify(proof) == "success":
solved_count += 1
return solved_count
Common pitfalls
- Problems are strictly limited to a 90-minute solving time per instance.
- LLM-based provers may fail due to context length limits when expression trees grow too large during search.
- Training data contamination is a concern, though authors verified test problems are absent from training sets.
Evidence (verbatim from paper)
We evaluate AIPS on an Olympiad-level algebraic inequality problem test set. It outperforms the state-of-the-art methods in terms of the number of solved problems, demonstrating the strong algebraic intuitions developed by the learned value network.
