AISummary of 1 article

The Yang-Mills Working Group has posted a validation of OpenAI's Lean submission of October 28, 2026, which formalizes a continuum pure Yang-Mills theory.

According to the group, the construction satisfies the Wightman axioms as a scaling limit of four-dimensional Wilson lattice gauge theory. The group says the work does not prove that the infinite-volume limit is unique, and it does not prove that a mass gap exists. The assessment is published in the yang-mills-group/YM repository. The group states it has no present connection to the Clay Mathematics Institute.
