Algebruh - Cross-check arithmetic claims with Z3, cvc5, and Lean

In plain words

Algebruh is a command-line tool that verifies arithmetic equality and disequality claims by cross-checking them against multiple independent solvers including Z3, cvc5, and Lean. It reports proofs, counterexamples, and disagreements between checkers to help identify errors or inconsistencies. The tool requires Rust 1.85 or later and the Z3 development library, with optional support for additional checkers, and is designed for developers working with formal verification and arithmetic reasoning.

  I made a calculator that works over disjoint sets of intervalsApr 2026 · victorpoughon.github.io · ▲314

  I've been studying interval arithmetic for the past few weeks and it's a really interesting field because while there is a ton of super interesting research published over the past decades, it has never really gotten the recognition that it deserves, IMO. One reason for this is that standard interval arithmetic has really poor handling of division by intervals containing zero. If you compute 1 / [-1, 2] in regular interval arithmetic, you get either [-∞, +∞], or you have to say that the operation is undefined. Both solutions are virtually useless. The real answer of course is [-∞, -1] U…

  Formalizing Principia Mathematica using Lean2025 · github.com · ▲188

  This project aims to formalize the first volume of Prof. Bertrand Russell’s Principia Mathematica using the Lean theorem prover. Throughout the formalization, I tried to rigorously follow Prof. Russell’s proof, with no or little added statements from my side, which were only necessary for the formalization but not the logical argument. Should you notice any inaccuracy (even if it does not necessarily falsify the proof), please let me know as I would like to proceed with the same spirit of rigour. Before starting this project, I had already found Prof. Elkind’s formalization of the Principia…

  Formally verified 3D CSG: Trust 93 lines spec, not 1000 lines AI codeJul 2026 · github.com · ▲115

  To my knowledge, this is the first formally verified implementation of a 3D constructive solid geometry (CSG) operation: mesh intersection, implemented in Lean 4 and verified against a concise specification that pins down the surface of the resulting mesh exactly and guarantees practical well-formedness conditions on the triangulation. This project is also an experiment in avoiding having to trust AI-generated code. A human reviewer only needs to read 93 lines of formal specification and run the Lean checker to certify the correctness of the kernel, skipping the intricate 1000+ lines of…

  i2forge – A Platform for Verified Reasoning2023 · i2forge.com · ▲35

  Hi! We're Amisi and Claude, builders of the i2 language and the i2forge platform. i2 is an (early draft of a) language designed to make formal verification easy for mathematicians. We are launching the language as an open source project today (https://i2lang.org) together with a closed alpha for i2forge. However, we have a publicly accessible demo page which anyone can use, and we would love your feedback. Thanks.

  Talanoa▲346

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  Clipto MCP▲655

  Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

  Simple algorithm and color space to generate diverse skin tones▲627

  Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
