Not evaluated
Weak mixing of irrational triangular billiards (family 150)
The gist
On October 6, 2026, OpenAI announced two manuscripts on triangular billiards with an irrational angle, one on weak mixing and one on ergodicity.
DiscoverIA status on October 12, 2026: not evaluated, meaning no third-party evaluation found.

What it changes
Ergodicity means that, in the long run, almost every trajectory passes through each region of the possible states (position and direction) for a share of the time proportional to its size. Weak mixing is a form of stirring in which the system keeps no hidden periodic behaviour. If the manuscripts were correct, they would describe these two properties for triangular billiards with an irrational angle.
What remains unclear
The Lean (a language in which a computer checks every step of a proof) is supplied by OpenAI itself and marked “unchecked” in formalization.yaml. No third-party verification is recorded. A single Comparator statement accompanies the 2 manuscripts, and the sources read do not say what it covers.

Method
The openai/math repository contains 2 manuscripts. The manuscript “Ergodicity of triangular billiards with an irrational angle” is dated September 25, 2026. The manuscript “Weak mixing of triangular billiards with an irrational angle” is dated October 5, 2026. OpenAI attaches lean/docs/150.md and lean/ComparatorChallenges/IrrationalTriangleBilliard.lean. According to history.md, no revision is reported. 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.
