arXiv:2610.08329v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present an AI-assisted Lean 4 formalization of the Poincare conjecture. The project began with limited reusable formal infrastructure for the geometric analysis behind the proof. To organize this work, we combined a proof blueprint prepared by mathematicians with explicit milestone statements. These milestones enabled parallel agent work and gave mathematicians clear points to locate blockers and provide effective mathematical guidance. Our analysis identifies the human interventions and organizational choices behind this workflow. The project provides a starting point toward reusable infrastructure for future formalization projects; such infrastructure, once developed, could eventually reduce the cost of verifying mathematical results in geometric analysis.
