High school students use AI to solve an open problem in mathematics
Quanquan Gu@QuanquanGuJust got this incredible news from UCLA Math Circle. Two high school students, Aayush Bathija and Prince Rohatgi, working with postdoc Daniel Soskin through the UCLA Math Circle, have solved a problem that Fields Medalist June Huh had previously worked on without solving.

Opening excerpt (first ~120 words) tap to expand
Quanquan Gu@QuanquanGuJust got this incredible news from UCLA Math Circle. Two high school students, Aayush Bathija and Prince Rohatgi, working with postdoc Daniel Soskin through the UCLA Math Circle, have solved a problem that Fields Medalist June Huh had previously worked on without solving. The paper was heavily AI-assisted. Whatever your view on AI in mathematics, enabling high school students to push the frontier of mathematical research is something worth celebrating. arxiv.org/abs/2609.05341arxiv.orgBounded ratios for Lorentzian polynomialsWe study multiplicative inequalities among the coefficients of Lorentzian polynomials through the notion of \emph{bounded ratios}.
