Not evaluated
Sharp homogeneous depth-five complexity of matrix products (family 135)
The gist
OpenAI claims, in a manuscript announced on October 6, 2026, homogeneous depth-five lower bounds for iterated matrix multiplication.
DiscoverIA status on October 12, 2026: not evaluated, meaning no third-party evaluation found.

What it changes
A lower bound gives a limit below which the size of a computation cannot go: here, one that multiplies a long sequence of matrices (tables of numbers). If the manuscript held, it would apply to a restricted form of computing circuit, called homogeneous and of depth five, and not to every possible computation.
What remains unclear
The repository file formalization.yaml marks the Lean (a language in which a computer checks every step of a proof) supplied by OpenAI as “review: status: unchecked”. No third-party check has been read, so it is not known whether the manuscript holds.

Method
A manuscript dated September 25, 2026: “Homogeneous depth-five lower bounds for iterated matrix multiplication”. It is listed in CONTENTS.md and classified under the section “Theoretical computer science” of overview.tex. The repository contains lean/docs/135.md and 1 Comparator statement. DiscoverIA status: not evaluated, meaning that no third-party evaluation has been found in the sources read. Set on October 12, 2026 from github.com (page read, quotation checked word for word: “describes the scope of the Lean formalization”).
Limits
No named third party: the recorded checks come from the claimant or from a platform tool. The claimant supplies a Lean proof; as of this date, DiscoverIA has found no independent verification of this proof or of the result.
