## Summary

The Yang-Mills Working Group has posted a validation of OpenAI's Lean submission of October 28, 2026, which formalizes the continuum pure Yang-Mills theory. The group says the construction satisfies the Wightman axioms as a scaling limit of four-dimensional Wilson lattice gauge theory, but does not prove the infinite-volume limit is unique or that there is a mass gap. The assessment is available in the yang-mills-group/YM repository, and the group says it has no present connection to the Clay Mathematics Institute.

## Why it matters

The validation attached to the source specifies what the OpenAI Lean submission proves and what it leaves unproven, including the missing mass gap and unresolved uniqueness.
