arXiv:2509.13570v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: With the rapid rise of generative AI in higher education, understanding how students use AI is increasingly important. This exploratory study examines student use and perceptions of generative AI across three proof-based undergraduate mathematics courses: a first-semester abstract algebra course, a topology course, and a second-semester abstract algebra course. In each case, course policy permitted some use of generative AI. Drawing on survey responses and student interviews, we analyze how students engaged with AI tools as well as their perceptions of generative AI's usefulness, accuracy and limitations.
