Time Speaker Title Abstract
8:30-9:00 - Coffee -
9:00-9:45 I. Beloshapka AI for Mathematical Reasoning: Formal vs. Natural Language Approaches

Abstract

This talk will explore two distinct approaches to training models for mathematical problem-solving: one leveraging formal systems such as Lean, and a purely natural language-based approach. I will delve into key aspects of reinforcement learning relevant to these models and the basics of the transformer architecture. We will also explore the algorithms driving AlphaProof, an International Mathematical Olympiad silver medalist, and discuss auto-formalization.

9:50-10:35 H. Kera AI for Symbolic Computation - via Symbolic Computation

Abstract

The focus is on AI-assisted symbolic computation, rather than AI-assisted proving. Alongside an overview of recent studies, I will highlight open challenges that algebraists can engage with—either through collaboration with machine learning researchers or through independent contributions. In particular, I will walk through a deep learning-based approach to computing zero-dimensional ideals, where new algebraic problems naturally arise in the process of dataset generation—an essential step in training deep learning models.

10:45-11:30 S. Gukov Math + AI = AGI

Abstract

It comes as no surprise that solving challenging research-level math problems drives progress in mathematics. What is more surprising, though, is that solving such long-standing open problems also contributes to an entirely different field: the development of the next generation AI systems. We live in an exciting time where mathematics and AI can greatly benefit each other, and the goal of the talk is to explain how and why, drawing on specific examples from knot theory and combinatorial group theory. Largely based on recent work with Ali Shehper, Anibal Medina-Mardones, Lucas Fagan, Bart?omiej Lewandowski, Angus Gruen, Yang Qiu, Piotr Kucharski, and Zhenghan Wang.

13:30-13:55 L. Bunina Teaching "AI in Mathematics": Designing and Delivering an Experimental Course for Mathematicians

Abstract

This talk presents the experience of designing and teaching an experimental course on "AI in Mathematics" for advanced undergraduate and graduate students at Stevens Institute of Technology and Bar-Ilan University. The course aimed to bridge the gap between modern AI techniques and mathematical problem-solving, focusing on real mathematical content rather than generic AI applications.

14:35-15:20 V. Stepanov AI In Math Education – Practical Side

Abstract

This talk examines how current AI/ML advances can practically transform mathematics education. Using concrete examples from Gradarius, as well as latest and greatest AI platforms, the speaker will demonstrate real-world applications that move beyond the hype to show what's actually working in classrooms today, grounding AI promises in practical reality.
