About this hackathon

One week. Unsolved problems in mathematics. Machine-checked results. Join a global competition to formalize mathematics, attack open problems, and create verifiable public results with any combination of human reasoning and AI.In recent weeks we have seen worldwide news about AI advances on the toughest problems in mathematics - the Navier-Stokes Millennium Prize Problem and the Jacobian Conjecture. This week we invite you to learn and hack with the tools and skills that are starting to emerge for this new age of maths - AI recursive loops. We will work on 6 open problems in mathematics - each rated by difficulty and formalized through the Ulam Open Problems Difficulty Atlas. This hack is open to anyone who studied advanced mathematics as part of their university degree, inc. mathematics, physics, engineering and computer science. The 6 open problems are defined here - https://app.autolab.ai/lists/alejandrozu/openmathUlam Open Problems Difficulty Atlas - https://www.unsolvedmath.com/Full description of the competition and rules - https://rsihouse.ai/openmath ------ in the room: researchers from MIT, Harvard, Stanford, DeepMind and Meta.
