Claude Improves Lower Bound for Riemann Zeta Function Zeros to 67.2%

Anthropic's research version of Claude has successfully increased the longstanding lower bound for the fraction of zeros of the Riemann zeta function that satisfy the Riemann hypothesis from 41.6% to 67.2%. The model achieved this result autonomously using a multi-agent system, Claude Code, which executed thousands of shell commands and Python scripts. The findings were validated by internal and external mathematicians and formally verified using the Lean proof assistant.

Simplified heat budgets can yield misleading diagnoses of ocean temperature change

Standardized ocean heat budget (OHB) approximations used in climate research frequently obscure critical drivers of ocean temperature change. By analyzing the CESM2 model, researchers found that simplified budgets misattribute heat redistribution, specifically overestimating advective heating during ENSO events by 25% to 100%. These findings indicate that current climate risk models may be missing significant contributions from eddy parameterizations, necessitating more precise data reporting in future model intercomparisons.

Key Insights
- Simplified OHBs hide major heating drivers within residual terms, leading to incomplete climate diagnostics.
- Reconstructions of advective heating in the Niño3.4 region exaggerate ENSO-related heat growth by 25% for El Niño and 100% for La Niña.
- Eddy parameterizations are a dominant, under-explored driver of multidecadal ocean temperature change that remains invisible in simplified budget analyses.
TL;DR

Simplified ocean heat budget approximations significantly misrepresent ENSO dynamics and mask the influence of eddy parameterizations on long-term ocean temperature trends.
