The goal of this conference is to advance the dialogue and interactions between the LLM community and the larger world of mathematics in order to further the mathematical understanding of LLMs and contribute to solving some of the outstanding problems in the new field of LLMs.

 

In particular we intend to investigate mathematical structures that can be used to understand LLMs in terms of what they implicitly learn and how. 

 

At the same time, in the opposite direction the use of LLMs in order to do mathematics will be investigated.

 

Registration is free and open until May 20, 2026.

Invited speakers:
Quentin Berthet (Google DeepMind)
Edward Lockhart (Google DeepMind)
Gabriel Peyré (CNRS, DMA, École Normale Supérieure)
Yiannis Vlassopoulos (Athena Research Center & IHES)

Organizers: 
Michael Douglas (Harvard University & IHES), Amaury Hayat (CERMICS), Julio Parra-Martinez (IHES) and Yiannis Vlassopoulos (Athena Research Center & IHES)

The math and LLM day and the workshop on AI for the study of Amplitudes, are supported by the Google DeepMind AI for Math Initiative, and the IHES thanks Google DeepMind for their support.
