Soohak: A Mathematician-Curated Benchmark for Evaluating Research-level Math Capabilities of LLMs

Following the recent achievement of gold-medal performance on the IMO by frontier LLMs, the community is searching for the next meaningful and challenging target for measuring LLM reasoning. Whereas olympiad-style problems measure step-by-step reasoning alone, research-level problems use such reasoning to advance the frontier of mathematical knowledge itself, emerging as a compelling alternative. Yet research-level math benchmarks remain scarce because such problems are difficult to source (e.g., Riemann Bench and FrontierMath-Tier 4 contain 25 and 50 problems, respectively). To support reliable evaluation of next-generation frontier models, we introduce Soohak, a 439-problem benchmark newly authored from scratch by 64 mathematicians. Soohak comprises two subsets. On the Challenge subset, frontier models including Gemini-3-Pro, GPT-5, and Claude-Opus-4.5 reach 30.4%, 26.4%, and 10.4% respectively, leaving substantial headroom, while leading open-weight models such as Qwen3-235B, GPT-OSS-120B, and Kimi-2.5 remain below 15%. Notably, beyond standard problem solving, Soohak introduces a refusal subset that probes a capability intrinsic to research mathematics: recognizing ill-posed problems and pausing rather than producing confident but unjustified answers. On this subset, no model exceeds 50%, identifying refusal as a new optimization target that current models do not directly address. To prevent contamination, the dataset will be publicly released in late 2026, with model evaluations available upon request in the interim.

Smooth quotients of abelian surfaces by finite groups that fix the origin

Let $A$ be an abelian surface and let $G$ be a finite group of automorphisms of $A$ fixing the origin. Assume that the analytic representation of $G$ is irreducible. We give a classification of the pairs $(A,G)$ such that the quotient $A/G$ is smooth. In particular, we prove that $A=E^2$ with $E$ an elliptic curve and that $A/G\simeq\mathbb{P}^2$ in all cases. Moreover, for fixed $E$, there are only finitely many pairs $(E^2,G)$ up to isomorphism. This fills a small gap in the literature and completes the classification of smooth quotients of abelian varieties by finite groups fixing the origin started by the first two authors.

Smooth quotients of complex tori by finite groups (with an appendix by Stephen Griffeth)

Let $A$ be a complex torus and $G$ a finite group acting on $A$ without translations such that $A/G$ is smooth. Consider the subgroup $F\leq G$ generated by elements that have at least one fixed point. We prove that there exists a point $x\in A$ fixed by the whole group $F$ and that the quotient $A/G$ is a fibration of products of projective spaces over an étale quotient of a complex torus (the étale quotient being Galois with group $G/F$). In particular, when $G=F$, we may assume that $G$ fixes the origin. This is related to previous work by the authors, where the case of actions on abelian varieties fixing the origin was treated. Here, we generalize these results to complex tori and use them to reduce the problem of classifying smooth quotients of complex tori to the case of étale quotients. An ingredient of the proof of our fixed-point theorem is a result proving that in every irreducible complex reflection group there is an element which is not contained in any proper reflection subgroup and that Coxeter elements have this property for well-generated groups. This result is proved by Stephen Griffeth in an appendix.

Theta divisors whose Gauss map has a fiber of positive dimension

We construct families of principally polarized abelian varieties whose theta divisor is irreducible and contains an abelian subvariety. These families are used to construct examples when the Gauss map of the theta divisor is only generically finite and not finite. That is, the Gauss map in these cases has at least one positive-dimensional fiber. We also obtain lower-bounds on the dimension of Andreotti-Mayer loci.
