Mathematics authors and Lean users reviewing formalised papers
Worth noticing
It separates mechanically checked Lean statements from the human judgment that they correspond to the paper.

Field notes

The synthetic demo uses Proposition 2.3 to show how a paper claim can fail in Lean: it says every natural number is greater than its predecessor, but 0 − 1 = 0. The page marks that printed statement refuted and gives a corrected version, restricted to n ≥ 1, as proved. The setup runs inside a Lean project and lists Python 3.11+ as a requirement, with TeX Live needed for LaTeX papers.
