Mathlib Normalized S-Expressions

Lean 4 proof states from Mathlib, paired with the tactic applied at each step, in three representations extracted directly from the Lean kernel:

1. Source-faithful S-expressions of the goal and every hypothesis, as Lean elaborated them.
2. Normalized S-expressions of the same state, with stable local-context indices suitable for model input.
3. Annotated tactic syntax -- the original tactic's syntax tree with identifier leaves resolved to the constants and hypotheses they refer to.

Row identity follows cat-searcher/leandojo-benchmark-4-random, so split and row_index join directly against it and the val/test splits remain comparable to published results on that benchmark.

Unlike pretty-printed proof states, S-expressions carry the elaborated term structure: implicit arguments, instance resolution, and binder structure are all explicit, which is what makes graph- and pointer-based models possible.

Loading

from datasets import load_dataset
import json

ds = load_dataset("jajostrains/Mathlib-Normalized-Sexpr", split="train")
row = ds[0]
print(row["model_goal_sexp"])

# Nested payloads are JSON strings; see the schema note below.
syntax_tree = json.loads(row["source_syntax"])
context = json.loads(row["local_context"])

Coverage

Read this before training on the train split.

split	rows published	upstream rows	coverage
test	4,392	4,506	97.47%
train	218,727	250,814	87.21%
val	4,157	4,260	97.58%
total	227,276	259,580	87.56%

A row is published only when all three representations were extracted and validated for it. Rows are missing for two distinct reasons, and the difference matters:

• Environment limits -- a source file that did not elaborate within the timeout. These rows are absent for incidental reasons and are, in principle, recoverable. Their absence is close to random.
• Extractor limits and row data -- most importantly goal_cardinality: this extractor records states with exactly one pending goal, so every tactic invoked against multiple goals is excluded. Their absence is systematic.

Known bias

The train split is not a uniform random subsample of its upstream split. Because multi-goal invocations are excluded by construction, single-goal proof states are over-represented relative to the full benchmark, as are the tactics that tend to be applied to them. Any comparison against a model trained on all upstream rows should account for this.

The val and test splits are near-complete, so evaluation numbers computed on them remain comparable with published results.

Per-split failure taxonomy

test -- 114 rows not published

phase	rows	kind	reason
file_compile	59	environment	Lean could not elaborate the source file within the timeout, or the REPL exited while compiling it. Retryable.
goal_cardinality	25	extractor limit	The tactic was invoked against multiple pending goals. This extractor records single-goal states only, so these rows are absent by design.
invocation_alignment	24	row data	The dataset's tactic text could not be matched to any invocation recorded by Lean in that file.
ambiguous_invocation	6	row data	The tactic text matched more than one invocation, so the proof state could not be attributed unambiguously.

train -- per-phase breakdown unavailable

This split was extracted over several runs, and the manifest left on disk covers only 3,000 of its 250,814 rows. Rather than report phase counts measured on that fraction as if they described the split, they are omitted. The aggregate coverage above is measured from the published rows themselves and is exact; the causes listed under Coverage all apply here, goal_cardinality and file_compile foremost, but their relative sizes for this split are not established.

val -- 103 rows not published

phase	rows	kind	reason
file_compile	53	environment	Lean could not elaborate the source file within the timeout, or the REPL exited while compiling it. Retryable.
goal_cardinality	24	extractor limit	The tactic was invoked against multiple pending goals. This extractor records single-goal states only, so these rows are absent by design.
invocation_alignment	18	row data	The dataset's tactic text could not be matched to any invocation recorded by Lean in that file.
ambiguous_invocation	4	row data	The tactic text matched more than one invocation, so the proof state could not be attributed unambiguously.
theorem_identity	4	environment	The theorem's compilation unit could not be identified in the file. Retryable.

Schema

All three representations for a row ship in that same row, so nothing needs to be joined across files. Recursive payloads (source_syntax, local_context, the hypothesis lists) are stored as JSON strings: their shape varies per tactic, and a typed nested column would force either schema inference failures or a lowest-common-denominator union. Call json.loads on them.

Provenance

• Mathlib commit: 29dcec074de168ac2bf835a77ef68bbe069194c5
• Upstream dataset: cat-searcher/leandojo-benchmark-4-random
• Extraction: each Mathlib source file is elaborated with a patched Pantograph REPL, and the proof state Lean records at each matched tactic invocation is captured. States are read from Lean, never parsed back from pretty-printed text.
• test: extractor lean-action-trace-v3, raw schema v3, Pantograph unknown
• train: extractor lean-action-trace-v3, raw schema v3, Pantograph unknown
• val: extractor lean-action-trace-v3, raw schema v3, Pantograph unknown

Limitations

• Single-goal states only; see Coverage.
• train coverage is partial and biased; val/test are near-complete.
• S-expressions are large. Expect the goal and hypothesis columns to dominate memory; select only the representation you need.
• Normalized and source-faithful S-expressions are different representations of the same state, not alternatives of equal fidelity. Train on model_*; use raw_* when you need exactly what Lean emitted.
