TheoremGraph: Search 18M+ Mathematical Dependencies
TheoremGraph is a searchable graph of over 18 million mathematical statements from the Formal Abstracts dataset, showing dependencies between theorems across arXiv, Wikipedia, ProofWiki, and Stack Exchange. It enables users to explore citation links and the logical structure of mathematical knowledge.
Background
- TheoremGraph is a search engine launched by TheoremSearch that indexes over 18 million mathematical theorems and their dependency relationships (which theorems rely on which).
- It is built on top of the arXiv dataset and formal mathematics libraries (like those from proof assistants such as Lean, Coq, and Isabelle), mapping how results connect.
- The goal is to help mathematicians, students, and AI researchers explore the "graph" of mathematics — seeing the logical structure of proofs, finding prerequisites for a given theorem, or discovering alternative proof paths.
- This matters because mathematics has become vast and specialized; no one can hold all of it in memory. A dependency graph makes it easier to navigate, verify, and even automate reasoning.
- It is also relevant to AI: training models that understand mathematical structure requires high-quality linked data, and TheoremGraph provides that at an unprecedented scale.
