Rumor: OpenAI's 25-page proof of Sogge smoothing conjecture bypasses 20 years of work
teortaxesTex · x · 2026-10-27
Unverified rumor circulating on X claims OpenAI produced a 25-page proof of Sogge's local smoothing conjecture, which implies the Bochner-Riesz, Fourier restriction, Kakeya maximal function, and Kakeya conjectures. The purported proof allegedly bypasses two decades of painstaking harmonic analysis progress by using elliptic PDE methods to "nuke the entire Kakeya pipeline." The poster stresses it's word-of-mouth only and suggests someone should check on Terry Tao.
