Evaluating SageMath-Augmented LLM Agents for Computational and Experimental Mathematics

arXiv:2607.06820v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent advances in AI for Mathematics have focused largely on autoformalization and theorem proving, leaving the role of Computer Algebra Systems (CAS) in agentic LLM workflows underexplored. We propose a ReAct-style agentic setup that combines LLM reasoning with verifiable feedback from SageMath, together with Context7 for the up-to-date documentation. We evaluate this agentic setup across frontier models for solving research-level mathematical problems from the RealMath benchmark in a setting that emulates a computational-mathematics research l

Why this matters
