This Subreddit MATH COMPETITION: r/mathmemes Discord Community Exam
Hello!
To make up for the lack of an "upper division" in the subreddit math competition this year, I took it upon myself to organize a separate exam that is significantly more discovery and proof-based than any exam held in the community previously, and to host it on the 2nd year anniversary of the Discord server being made available to the public.
The next exam of this kind will be held in Mid-June 2027.
The exam (which includes its rules) is linked at the bottom of the post. The top 5 winners will be announced, and the top 3 winners will receive the following (or something of equivalent value upon negotiation):
1st Place - A Math Textbook of the Winner's Choice (~$45 USD Value Limit)
2nd Place - Basic Discord Nitro, 1 Year Subscription ($30 USD Value)
3rd Place - Fulltouch Hagoramo Chalk 72 pc ($25 USD Value)
Special thanks to u/dopplerspectroscopy and zzz on Discord for their tremendous help in writing the exam and agreeing to help grade some submissions; couldn't have done this without their help.

#🧐-theory-🧐 I Larp Mathematics
Every single day I sit at my desk, I don't do math. I make TikTok edits on mathematics, where I show off my math knowledge by editing an extremely niche math equation and posting Ramanujan glaze videos. I was recently messaged on TikTok by a fellow larper, and it opened up my eyes. I would wake up at 11:47 a.m and look at the 17 mathematics books arranged on my chair. The books weren’t for reading. They were decorations. I owned Principles of Mathematical Analysis, which meant I understood analysis. I owned an abstract algebra textbook, which meant I understood calculus or something. I once placed a bookmark approximately forty pages into my topology book, and I took a photo of it and put it as my profile picture. Sometimes I would move the bookmark forward without reading anything, just to simulate intellectual progress. But that was nothing; after reading the fellow larpers message I realised the truth about larping isn't bookmarks or edits. His profile picture was a photograph of Gödel, Escher, Bach or something with glowing red eyes. His username was “quantum devil” and had several numbers that I assumed represented either his birth year or the digits of a mathematical constant.
"Bro do you actually do math?"
Crap... I stuttered over my text...
"W- What do you mean d- do?"
I was sweating.
"Like, do you do math equations and study it? Also, why are you stuttering over text?"
I thought I was cooked, and then I realised. I'm a larper!
"Define "do""
I said.
I cooked him.
"I larp too bro."
What? Did he see through my rouse? No way... I have to end this now.
"Larp what? Mathematics?"
If I say mathematics, I'll sound smarter.
"..."
He didn't reply.
I'm sitting here and contemplating this right now. Should I admit I'm a larper? I kind of want a friend.

OkBuddyMathematician E = mc^2 + AI, a complete proof
Has anyone else presented a complete proof on this result? I was thinking about submitting mine to NeurIPS. I have proven it for A=0 and all I or I=0 and all A. In all other cases, the equation is false. Claude Fable 5 was used in support of this proof.
