Aayush Bathija and Prince Rohatgi, with guidance from UCLA postdoctoral researcher Daniel Soskin, released a 75-page paper titled "Bounded Ratios for Lorentzian Polynomials" on arXiv. The work solves an open problem related to the theory of Lorentzian polynomials pioneered by Fields Medalist June Huh, determining which coefficient ratios have universal upper bounds across all polynomials in the class.
“The students heavily utilized AI assistants, specifically Claude Opus 5 and GPT-5.6 Sol, for computational exploration, proof idea generation, and editing.”
