Agentic Proving for Program Verification

This paper tests Claude Code as an agentic prover for Lean 4 program verification on the CLEVER benchmark. It reports high rates of valid specifications, implementation certification, and end-to-end verified generation, suggesting current program-verification benchmarks may be too easy for modern agentic proving systems.

Keep the Proof State Live: Snapshotting for Efficient Tactic Search in Lean 4

This Lean 4 paper targets a bottleneck in parallel tactic search: each branch often re-runs expensive elaboration instead of reusing the proof state. The authors introduce proof-state snapshotting in the Lean language server so many search branches can reuse one elaborated state, making portfolio-style proof search more practical.

Risk-Controlled Lean-as-Judge for Natural-Language Mathematical Reasoning

This paper studies when Lean can be trusted as a judge for natural-language math answers, finding that proof success is highly coverage-dependent and sometimes unfaithful. It introduces COVCAL, a selective-risk method that accepts answers only when Lean-trace diagnostics support a calibrated accuracy guarantee, otherwise abstaining.
