"From this formulation ChatGPT quickly produced a sequence of arguments that led to a contradiction. Once again this automation easily saved me about XX minutes. The final proof is a streamlined reformulation of this contradiction. 11/N"

"Next we extend the analysis to the generalized Nesterov ODE. Prior work establishes convergence for r3. We established convergence for r=3. What about 0r3 2/N"

"However when prompted to solve the 1r3 case ChatGPT frequently made calculation errors and worked with an incorrect energy function that was not actually decreasing leading to invalid conclusions. 5/N"

"So I sifted through the energy functions ChatGPT produced and found X correct ones. In the subsequent queries I explicitly specified these energy functions to prevent ChatGPT from going down incorrect paths. 6/N"

"(ii) In the r=3 case the proof had X steps: X(t) is bounded and X(t) converges. ChatGPT easily proved convergence for 1r3 when prompted with the r=3 proof and the correct energy functions E and F. 7/N"

"(iii) However we were unable to prove boundedness. ChatGPT could not find a proof so I spent the time to work through the problem myself. After a reasonable amount of effort I am convinced that ChatGPT is correct that the technique used for r = X does not extend to r X. 8/N"

"The r = X case contains the key technical insight. I expected the generalization to X r X to be largely straightforward given the r = X proof and ChatGPT was indeed very helpful in carrying out this extension. 10/N"

"NAG was introduced by Nesterov in 1983 as an accelerated improvement upon plain gradient descent yet its point convergence remained unresolved until today. Nesterov ODE was studied as a simplified proxy aimed at gaining insight into the behavior of its discrete counterpart. 3/N"

"@RaduIoanBot Again ChatGPT is now at the level of solving some math research questions but you do need an expert guiding it. I strongly encourage fellow mathematicians to try incorporating AI assistance into their workflow. It takes some getting used to but it can be worth it. 13/N"
