• Abstract: Formalizing mathematical proofs using computerized verification languages like Lean 4 has the potential to significantly impact the field of mathematics, it offers prominent capabilities for advancing mathematical reasoning. However, existing efforts are largely limited to creating formalized versions of proofs from extensive online mathematical corpora, struggling to keep pace with the rapidly evolving nature of mathematics. To bridge the gap between traditional and computerized proof techniques, this paper explores the use of Large Language Models (LLMs) to generate formal proof steps and complete formalized proofs. By converting natural language (NL) mathematical proofs into formalized versions, this work introduces the basic structure and tactics of the Lean 4 language. The goal is to determine how AI can be leveraged to assist the mathematical formalization process and improve its performance. Several examples are provided that demonstrate solving problems using both traditional and Lean 4-based approaches. Ultimately, this paper presents an explanation of the foundations of Lean 4 and comparative analyses of the mathematical formalization process using traditional and AI-augmented techniques. The findings indicate that AI- powered tools have significant potential to accelerate and enhance the formalization of mathematical proofs, paving the way for more efficient and reliable theorem-proving for AI for Math in the future.

  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.
