1. **[A Survey on Deep Learning for Theorem Proving](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/li-2024-survey-deep-learning-theorem-proving/)** *(2024 · 46 citations)* Research applying neural methods, and especially large language models, to mathematical proof has grown quickly.
2. **[Autoformalizing Euclidean Geometry](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/murphy-2024-autoformalizing-euclidean-geometry/)** *(2024 · 23 citations)* The paper addresses autoformalization, which means converting human-written mathematics into statements and proofs that a machine can check.
3. **[Autoformalize Mathematical Statements by Symbolic Equivalence and Semantic Consistency](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/li-2024-autoformalize-mathematical-statements-symbolic-equivalence/)** *(2024 · 19 citations)* The paper addresses a weakness in LLM-based autoformalization, the task of turning natural-language math statements into formal theorems (here, Isabelle/HOL).
4. **[Proving Olympiad Inequalities by Synergizing LLMs and Symbolic Reasoning](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/li-2025-proving-olympiad-inequalities-synergizing-llms/)** *(2025 · 11 citations)* The paper tackles automated formal proving of elementary algebraic inequalities from math Olympiads. Pure LLM provers struggle because formal proof data is scarce and the tactic space is huge. Symbolic methods such as cylindrical algebraic decomposition scale poorly and give opaque, non-readable proofs. The authors…
