apples_jimmy · x · 2026-10-27
danintheory announced three new discoveries across mathematics, computer science, and physics, covering harmonic analysis, complexity theory, and quantum field theory:
- The Exponential Time Hypothesis is false — a major result in complexity theory
- Existence of quantum chromodynamics and completions of the Standard Model — quantum field theory
- Local smoothing and the Kakeya conjecture — harmonic analysis
applesjimmy amplified the release noting "It's out", pointing to the published results page. A landmark step for AI-driven mathematical discovery.
