Nie and Wei credit GPT-5.6 Sol for exploration and discovery, state that they checked the arguments and authored the text, and retain responsibility. Their argument uses the Vlassis–Thomas calibration theorem.
OpenMath source records preserve exact citations. Observation dates order these records; they do not establish the latest upstream paper or proof.
On Feige’s conjecture
OpenMath supplies its own mathematical paraphrases and links; proof text is not republished.
