Euler: Towards Human-Centered Multi-Agent Mathematical Discovery

Mathematical communities work with different objects, invariants, and tools, so transferring a problem across them is expensive and often skipped. We present EULER, a multi-agent system that takes such a transfer--a bridge--as its unit of search. Around a fixed conjecture, EULER runs direct, adjacent-domain, and distant-domain routes in competition; a bridge keeps its budget only if it supplies an operation the source representation cannot execute and its target-side evidence returns to the original statement along a checked implication. Six ordered stress tests reject invalid bridges before expensive search begins. We evaluate EULER on 120 recent conjectures. The conjectures were frozen before search and screened for contamination, and are drawn from public papers by authors who had recently published in the Journal of Combinatorial Theory, Series A, a leading journal in combinatorics. EULER produced 10 proofs and 3 refutations, plus 45 scoped partial results. Two mechanisms held up under ablation: bridge-specific stress tests cut incorrect conclusions from 9 to 3, and bridge material combined with a target-native operation yielded a positive interaction of +4.2 resolved tasks that neither factor produced alone. Domain distance did not reliably predict success; executable operation gain and valid return did.

We introduce the AI co-mathematician, a workbench for mathematicians to interactively leverage AI agents to pursue open-ended research. The AI co-mathematician is optimized to provide holistic support for the exploratory and iterative reality of mathematical workflows, including ideation, literature search, computational exploration, theorem proving and theory building. By providing an asynchronous, stateful workspace that manages uncertainty, refines user intent, tracks failed hypotheses, and outputs native mathematical artifacts, the system mirrors human collaborative workflows. In early tests, the AI co-mathematician helped researchers solve open problems, identify new research directions, and uncover overlooked literature references. Besides demonstrating a highly interactive paradigm for AI-assisted mathematical discovery, the AI co-mathematician also achieves state of the art results on hard problem-solving benchmarks, including scoring 48% on FrontierMath Tier 4, a new high score among all AI systems evaluated.

AI reasoning has become a central focus in contemporary artificial intelligence, largely driven by the success of large language models. However, mathematical research, which is characterized by non-linear derivation paths, rigorous logical requirements, and protracted exploration cycles, poses severe challenges for existing reasoning systems. To overcome these limitations, we present the MechMath Agent Team (MMAT), which is a large language model driven agent designed to serve as a co-pilot throughout the full cycle of mathematical research. We design a tripartite Harness Architecture that decouples system responsibilities into Control, Execution, and Augmentation planes, thereby reconciling rigorous logical control with the agility demanded by open-ended research. Building upon this framework, we instantiate three specialized agents: a Knowledge Base Manager, a Natural Language Prover, and a Formal Language Prover, all operating in a closed loop to produce formally certified mathematical proofs. We evaluate MMAT on open problems in Number Theory, Algebraic Complexity Theory, Differential Algebra, Operator Algebra, and Inequalities. Across a two-month deployment, 11 problems have been solved, demonstrating its capacity to act as a co-pilot throughout the entire research cycle. The contributions are threefold: a general decoupled Harness Architecture for multi-agent mathematical reasoning, its concrete instantiation in the MMAT system, and empirical validation on a diverse suite of open problems.
