Computational Mathematics for and with AI/ML

Companion page for our group poster at the Math & AI workshop in Seattle (August 18-20, 2026).

This page accompanies our poster at the Math & AI Summer in Seattle workshop (August 18-20, 2026), which brings together the themes of the DARPA expMath and AIQ programs. The map below is the poster's centerpiece: every box is a link to the corresponding paper, library, or note, and the application papers from the poster's bottom strip follow underneath.

All projects on the map

VERITAS

VERITAS (Verification Engine for Reliable and Intelligent Testing of Algebra Systems) is our framework for automated testing and certification of AI-generated numerical linear algebra code: LLM recognition and behavioural fingerprinting route any kernel to a testing harness covering correctness, reproducibility, performance, and uncertainty, ending in a certificate of trust. The project is in its pre-award phase and has no public artifact yet; this entry will link to it when one exists.

VSCL

The Verified Scientific Computing Library (VSCL) is a Lean 4 library of machine-checked numerical stability proofs in the style of Higham's error analysis, built so that AI-generated numerical mathematics can be verified at the speed it is generated. A public release is being consolidated; this entry will link to the repository when it lands.
