## Papers

The most cited first (OpenAlex and our library).

1. **[BFS-Prover: Scalable Best-First Tree Search for LLM-based Automatic Theorem Proving](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/xin-2025-bfs-prover-scalable-best-first/)** *(2025 · 49 citations)* Proof search in Lean4 involves a huge space of possible tactics, so automated provers have mostly relied on MCTS and learned value (critic) models.
2. **[Seed-Coder: Let the Code Model Curate Data for Itself](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/bytedance-seed-2025-seed-coder-let-code/)** *(2025 · 25 citations)* Open code LLMs usually build their pretraining corpora with human-designed heuristics, such as per-language filtering rules or quality classifiers trained on human labels.
3. **[Scaling up Multi-Turn Off-Policy RL and Multi-Agent Tree Search for LLM Step-Provers](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/xin-2025-scaling-up-multi-turn-off/)** *(2025 · 7 citations)* The paper tackles two linked bottlenecks in LLM-based theorem proving for Lean4. In training, reinforcement learning tends to stall after early gains. At inference, the space of possible tactics grows explosively. The authors present BFS-Prover-V2, an open-source step-level prover that treats proving as a Markov…
