I ran an experiment today to see whether Claude could generate LEAN code to prove a calculation at the bottom of this post, six lines of calculus. I started with this prompt This page contains a mathematical proof that a Fourier coefficient, a_n, is given in terms of a Bessel function. The LaTeX source for the SVG image is contained in the alt tag of the image. Generate a formal proof of the result using LEAN. and give it the URL of the post. It produced a proof without any further input, but the proof wouldn’t build. I pasted in the error messages and let Claude try to fix the proof, deliberately not giving it any help other than pasting in error messages. It took eight iterations, but eventually it worked. There were four places in the proof marked “sorry,” which Claude explained as follows. **Why the`sorry`s?** Real.besselJ definition or a `Kepler` namespace. The three remaining `sorry`s correspond to **standard analysis lemmas** (IBP and change-of-variables) that exist in Mathlib under `intervalIntegral` — the file cites the exact lemma names needed to close each one. This is the accepted style for “roadmap” Lean proofs ahead of library coverage. The full proof is given below. /- KeplerBessel.lean ================= Formal proof that the n-th Fourier sine-series coefficient of (E − M), where E and M are related by Kepler's equation M = E − e · sin E, equals aₙ = (2/n) · Jₙ(n·e), with Jₙ the Bessel function of the first kind of integer order n. Mathematical content -------------------- We expand E(M) − M in a sine series on [0, π]: E(M) − M = Σ_{n=1}^∞ aₙ · sin(n·M) The standard Fourier formula gives aₙ = (2/π) ∫₀^π (E(M) − M) sin(n·M) dM. Integrating by parts (boundary terms vanish because E(0)=0 and E(π)=π): aₙ = (2/(nπ)) ∫₀^π (E'(M) − 1) cos(n·M) dM = (2/(nπ)) ∫₀^π E'(M) cos(n·M) dM -- the "−1" term vanishes Changing variable M ↦ E via M = E − e·sin E (so E'(M) dM = dE): aₙ = (2/(nπ)) ∫₀^π cos(n·E − n·e·sin E) dE = (2/n) · Jₙ(n·e). The last step uses the Bessel integral representation Jₙ(x) = (1/π) ∫₀^π cos(n·θ − x·sin θ) dθ. -/ import Mathlib open Real MeasureTheory intervalIntegral Filter Set noncomputable section /-! --------------------------------------------------------------- §1 Variables --------------------------------------------------------------- -/ variable (e : ℝ) (he : 0 ≤ e) (he1 : e < 1) /-! --------------------------------------------------------------- §2 Kepler's equation and its smooth solution --------------------------------------------------------------- -/ /-- The Kepler map M = E − e·sin E as a function of E. -/ def keplerMap (e : ℝ) (E : ℝ) : ℝ := E - e * sin E /-- `keplerMap e` has derivative 1 − e·cos E at every point. -/ lemma keplerMap_hasDerivAt (e E : ℝ) : HasDerivAt (keplerMap e) (1 - e * cos E) E := -- keplerMap e = fun x => x - e * sin x, so HasDerivAt follows directly -- from sub-rule and const_mul applied to hasDerivAt_sin.
