FormalTCS - Theorem Proving: leaderboard
FormalTCS (2026) benchmarks LLMs on frontier theoretical computer science research over 143 instances from 2025-2026 conference papers, each annotated in natural language and in Lean 4. Pass at eight for producing a Lean 4 proof of the annotated formal theorem accepted by the compiler, in percent; higher is better.
Metric: Pass@8 (%; at least one of 8 sampled Lean 4 proofs of the human-annotated formal theorem accepted by the Lean compiler with warnings as errors and an axiom whitelist; 143 instances from theoretical computer science papers accepted at STOC, FOCS, SODA, COLT and similar venues in 2025-2026, each stage given the human-annotated input; each model runs in its own vendor harness). Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Around April 2028. 8 models tracked.
