A chart shared by littmath shows math arXiv weekly submissions climbing from 800 in early 2025 to a sharp spike past 2,300 per week by late 2026, across all major categories. The growth rate far exceeds natural academic publishing trends and is widely read as a sign of LLM-assisted paper generation, raising concerns about quality and peer-review load in mathematics.
