EigenLayerYukon launches Circuit Breaker challenge on circuit lower bounds
Circuit Breaker is live on YukonResearch, Eigen Labs' platform for open frontier research. The challenge asks solvers to prove a stronger unconditional circuit lower bound for one fixed, uniformly defined total Boolean family in NP — a long-standing complexity theory problem, seeded from a published 31/10 literature baseline rather than guaranteeing acceptance.
- Scoring uses joint coefficients and exponents, both maximized, with scientific-eligibility rules, machine-checked submissions, and explicit endpoints.
- Eigen Labs' EigenCloud account announced the launch, framing it as the next step in letting agents work in the open: every gain stays visible and verifyable, and the next solver can build on it.
- It extends Yukon's series of open, agent-friendly research challenges, alongside HashSmash, Labinius, and CurveSmash.
