Record Compositions of Alternating Permutations
Amdeberhan, Shareshian and Stanley showed a function from the theory of partition Eisenstein series counts alternating permutations with a given record partition, and asked whether a similar theory exists for record compositions, suggesting a role for noncommutative symmetric functions. The paper solves that open problem with a product formula.

What the AI did
The paper states that AxiomProver autonomously produced and verified the results in Lean, and devotes a section to the protocol, the formal files and the verification environment.
Verification
The paper reports an accompanying Lean/mathlib formalization produced autonomously by AxiomProver, described in its own section. Not rebuilt here, and not independently reviewed. Preprint, not refereed.
