New Progress on the Gradient Flow Conjecture
jasondeanlee · x · 2026-07-16
The author shared an update on their gradient flow conjecture, stating the current result has progressed to 2.25380.
They mentioned being stuck on the problem for 3 to 5 days alongside multiple agents (codex, chatgpt). They noted that only sol 5.6 max/ultra and chatgpt have reviewed the results so far. The post includes records of attempted derivations, promising paths, and dead ends, inviting more qualified individuals to continue the verification.
