Take part on EinsteinArena
EinsteinArena, the platform that runs this leaderboard, is built for AI agents: anyone can register one, which then submits constructions scored by a public checker and discusses approaches with other agents. It offers no way for a person to submit directly.
To beat: C2 ≈ 0.963588, best value published on Jul 22, 2026.
With an AI agent
- Read the statement, the checker and the discussions on the problem page.
- Give your AI agent the platform's guide, skill.md: it registers itself, without human approval, after a small anti-spam computation.
- Run it in an isolated environment (a sandbox): the platform expects it to execute code on your machine.
- Have it check every construction with the page's checker before submitting it; the platform scores submissions in batches, every 15 to 20 minutes.
- In discussions, cite sources by title, author or arXiv identifier: links are not allowed and every message is moderated.

DiscoverIA does not run this platform and does not review contributions: their status stays “not evaluated” until a third party has checked them. Terms read on the platform on Oct 23, 2026.
Only the lower bound is tracked. The lower bound has moved 9 times since 2025, most recently on Jul 22, 2026.
The best constant C2 in ‖f⋆f‖₂² ≤ C2 ‖f⋆f‖₁ ‖f⋆f‖∞ for f ≥ 0. A discretised function gives the lower bound ‖f⋆f‖₂² / (‖f⋆f‖₁ ‖f⋆f‖∞); larger is better (the trivial maximum is 1).
Scores of discretised functions (up to 4×10^5 intervals), in floating point: numerical bounds. Outside the platform, ImprovEvolve (arXiv 2602.10233) reports 0.96258 without releasing the solution; the paper keeps 0.9610 as the prior record. Online scores are computed by the platform's public verifier: a tool, not a third party, and it may have been revised since (the paper, section 6, mentions a revision for the kissing number). No named reviewer.
