OpenAI research collection · 2 manuscripts · Source checked 2026-10-19

OpenAI's result summary

Proves the ordinary-double-point volume-gap conjecture: every singular complex algebraic klt germ of dimension n ≥ 2, with zero boundary, has normalized volume at most 2(n-1)^n. Equality holds precisely for an analytic ordinary double point.

MANUSCRIPT 01

The ordinary-double-point gap in every dimension

We prove the ordinary-double-point gap conjecture for boundary-zero complex algebraic klt germs in every dimension: a singular n-dimensional germ has normalized volume at most 2(n-1)^n, with equality precisely at an analytic ordinary double point.

MANUSCRIPT 02

The normalized-volume gap in dimension four

We prove that every singular complex algebraic klt fourfold germ with zero boundary has normalized volume at most 162, with equality precisely for an analytic ordinary double point. This resolves the ordinary-double-point volume-gap conjecture in dimension four.

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.
