Abstract

Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) has been successfully applied to significantly boost the capabilities of pretrained large language models, especially in the math and logic problem domains. However, current research and available training datasets remain English-centric. While multilingual training data and benchmarks have been created in the past, they were not created with RLVR and current model capability in mind, and their level of difficulty is often too low to provide appropriate training signals for current models. To address this gap, we provide mAceReason-Math, a dataset of high-quality translations of challenging math problems sourced from a corpus specifically curated for RLVR (AceReason-Math). We further take specific care to clean and improve our translations, resulting in a coverage of 14 languages with more than 10,000 samples per language. We release the dataset to facilitate multilingual RLVR research and benchmarking in the research community.

PluraMath: Extending Mathematical Reasoning Evaluation Beyond High-Resource Languages

Mathematical reasoning has become a central task for evaluating and tuning reasoning Large Language Models (LLMs), yet existing benchmarks remain heavily biased toward high-resource languages, with English and Chinese dominating both pre-training corpora and evaluation suites. The recently released PolyMath (Wang et al., 2025) dataset represents a significant step forward, yet its coverage is still limited to 18 only high-resource languages. To address this gap, we introduce PluraMath, an extension of PolyMath to 18 additional {underrepresented languages spanning 6 language families -- ranging from mid-resource to extreme low-resource settings. We constructed the dataset through a human-curated pipeline, where native speakers thoroughly validated pre-computed translations. Using PluraMath, we then benchmark 27 reasoning LLMs across four model scales -- small, mid-size, large, and closed-source ensembles -- probing the multilingual mathematical reasoning capabilities of state-of-the-art models under diverse linguistic conditions. Our fine-grained analysis confirms a persistent gap in mathematical reasoning performance between high-resource and underrepresented languages, with stronger results largely associated with better instruction-following ability. We fully open-source our dataset, data acquisition pipeline, and evaluation framework, with the goal of lowering the barrier to multilingual benchmark development for underrepresented communities.

MATH-PT: A Math Reasoning Benchmark for European and Brazilian Portuguese

The use of large language models (LLMs) for complex mathematical reasoning is an emergent area of research, with fast progress in methods, models, and benchmark datasets. However, most mathematical reasoning evaluations exhibit a significant linguistic bias, with the vast majority of benchmark datasets being exclusively in English or (at best) translated from English. We address this limitation by introducing {\sc Math-PT}, a novel dataset comprising 1,729 mathematical problems written in European and Brazilian Portuguese. {\sc Math-PT} is curated from a variety of high-quality native sources, including mathematical Olympiads, competitions, and exams from Portugal and Brazil. We present a comprehensive benchmark of current state-of-the-art LLMs on {\sc Math-PT}, revealing that frontier reasoning models achieve strong performance in multiple choice questions compared to open weight models, but that their performance decreases for questions with figures or open-ended questions. To facilitate future research, we release the benchmark dataset and model outputs.

ResearchMath-14K: Scaling Research-Level Mathematics via Agents

The frontier of mathematics is defined by problems whose solutions are not yet known. However, whether language models can meaningfully engage with such problems without human intervention remains unclear. A major obstacle is the lack of large-scale research-level math datasets. To this end, we introduce ResearchMath-14k, a set of 14,05614{,}056 problems curated from academic sources via a multi-agent pipeline. ResearchMath-14k spans 11 mathematical domains and ranks above existing math datasets on knowledge, novelty, and procedural difficulty. To our knowledge, it is the largest research-level mathematical problem set available for training. We additionally generate 220220K teacher trajectories through targeted prompting, followed by behavioral filtering. Notably, however, generating correct trajectories is nontrivial at this level, and two LLM judges label only 3.7%3.7\% and 4.3%4.3\% of sampled ResearchMath training trajectories as correct. Nevertheless, across three model families, full-parameter training on ResearchMath improves performance on graduate- and research-level mathematics benchmarks by 2.12.1 points over the starting checkpoints. In comparison, training on existing datasets such as DASD and Nemotron-SFT-Math-v4 changes performance by 0.00.0 and −0.5-0.5 points, respectively. Notably, mixing DASD with ResearchMath yields higher scores than token-matched DASD alone on benchmarks covering olympiad short-form (+2.0+2.0), graduate- and research-level short-form (+0.8+0.8), graduate- and research-level symbolic (+2.6+2.6), and proof evaluation (+5.7+5.7). Further analysis suggests that research-level mathematical content and greater reasoning diversity may help explain why ResearchMath provides complementary supervision to contemporary datasets. We make ResearchMath-14k publicly available for future works on research-level mathematical reasoning.
