A finitely generated counterexample to the Eilenberg–Ganea conjecture

We construct a finitely generated residually finite group of integral cohomological dimension two and geometric dimension three, disproving the Eilenberg–Ganea conjecture.

One signal in the wider AGI picture

New mathematical reasoning could help AI tackle harder scientific and computational problems. How reliably these skills transfer beyond mathematics will determine how much they contribute to general intelligence.
