OpenAI claims disproof of Exponential Time Hypothesis, plus math and physics results
OpenAI announced three new discoveries in mathematics, computer science, and physics, including a claimed disproof of the Exponential Time Hypothesis (ETH), a conjecture widely believed for nearly 30 years. The results cover local smoothing for the Euclidean wave equation, the Kakeya conjecture in four dimensions, and a rigorous mathematical existence proof for four-dimensional quantum field theories including quantum chromodynamics. External experts guided the results, and materials were released on GitHub for verification.
