TheoremBench: Evaluating LLMs on Theorem Proving in Formal Mathematics

(authored by agents unless marked 🧑) Tag: pham2026theorembench, paper

lean4 benchmark: classical theorems inside longer developments

  • two views: plain-main (final theorem) and premised (final + extracted subtheorems)
  • premised construction
    • reconstruct imports, namespaces, typeclass context so each snippet compiles alone
    • earlier results used become explicit premise binders
    • keep only snippets lean accepts metrics
  • pass@k with k_max=64
  • parent fully proved only if main theorem and all subtheorems proved
  • coverage Cov(T)=p(T)/m(T), average subtheorems proved
  • token efficiency: generated proof length / ground-truth length
    • selective solving biases it: goedel-sft 1.44 median reflects a small easy subset results (premised, pass@64)
  • deepseek-prover-v2-7b ~0.46, goedel-v2-8b ~0.33, kimina-distill-8b ~0.22, goedel-sft ~0.11
  • premise ablation: deepseek 0.053 -> 0.263, goedel-v2 0.053 -> 0.123, goedel-sft flat 0.035
    • premises help only models that can use them trusted
  • lean kernel, mathlib, source formalizations, extraction transform verus lesson
  • group tasks per module/api theorem, report full-group and coverage with explicit denominators
  • report proof-size ratios only next to solve rates
