• Abstract: Using computerized verifiable formal languages like Lean 4 to prove mathematical theorems has a significant impact on mathematical formalization. Lean 4 offers prominent potential for advancing mathematical reasoning. However, existing efforts are limited to mathematical formalization languages in substantial online corpora and are dedicated to keeping pace with rapidly evolving languages. To bridge the gap between the traditional and computerized proof, my approach to formalizing theorem proving involves generating formal steps and complete proofs using Large Language Models (LLMs) based on Natural Language (NL) proofs. The method is to introduce the basic structure and tactics in general, determine how AI can assist the mathematical formalization process to improve its performance, and give examples of solving problems in Lean 4 comparing to NL, mainly in IMO, and a sample theorem proving in abstract algebra.

  This work proposes Alchemy, a framework for data synthesis that constructs formal theorems through symbolic mutation. For each candidate theorem in Mathlib, we identify all invocable theorems that can be used to rewrite or apply to it. As a result, our method increases the number of theorems in Mathlib by an order of magnitude, from 110k to 6M.

  Autoformalization is the task of translating natural language mathematics into a formal language that can be verified by a program. Research paper mathematics requires large amounts of background and context. We propose an avenue towards tackling autoformalization for research-level mathematics, by breaking the task into easier and more approachable subtasks.

  We explore the abilities of a large language model (Codex) to help with formalisation in the Lean theorem prover. Codex is able to formalise short mathematical statements at undergrad level with nearly 75% accuracy for $120$ theorem statements. We show that with a new prompting strategy Codex can formalise these proofs in natural language with at least one out of twelve Codex completion being easy to repair into a complete proof.
