OpenAI's result summary
Constructs a finitely generated group with two essentially free probability-measure-preserving actions of different costs, answering the general fixed-price problem negatively. Its Bernoulli action has cost bounded away from one, while a sequence of finite height extensions has costs tending to one.

A group without fixed price
We construct a finitely generated group with two essentially free probability-measure-preserving actions of different costs. This gives a negative answer to Gaboriau's general fixed-price problem. The group is an amalgam of a free group of rank 100 with a direct product. Its Bernoulli action has cost bounded away from one,…

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.
