Will the Yang-Mills existence and mass gap problem be the next Millennium Prize Problem solved by AI?
Which Millennium Prize Problem will AI solve next?
Provider end date; confirm observation window in the rules.
Contract resolution rules
Market resolves according to the first qualifying Millennium Prize Problem for which an eligible AI lab announces a solution by Dec 31, 2027, 11:59 PM ET. If multiple qualifying problems are announced the same ET calendar day, the problem whose name comes first alphabetically determines resolution. The source does not fully specify how the Yes/No outcomes map when the first qualifying problem solved is not Yang-Mills.
Conditions for a winning outcome
Yes qualifies if an eligible AI lab or official representative announces a complete solution to the Yang-Mills existence and mass gap problem (presented as the lab's, its researchers', its models', or joint work with outside researchers) before any other qualifying problem, or on a day shared with other qualifying problems where Yang-Mills is first alphabetically. Navier-Stokes announcements do not qualify. No Clay Math confirmation is required. A consensus of credible reporting may also be used as a resolution source.
Exclusions and exceptions
No applies if no qualifying problem is announced by an eligible lab by the deadline, if only partial results or progress are announced, if credit goes only to outside researchers, if the announcement is from an ineligible entity, or if Navier-Stokes is the only announcement. If two or more qualifying problems are announced on the same ET calendar day, the alphabetically first problem name determines the outcome, not Yang-Mills unless it is first alphabetically.
Timing & resolution
December 31, 2027, 11:59 PM ET. Equivalent UTC timestamps represent the same deadline.
Ambiguities in the rules
The source lists five qualifying problems but does not state whether the full Clay Math Millennium Problem list is limited to those five; it is unclear whether a problem outside the list could ever qualify. Navier-Stokes is excluded both from the qualifying problems list and under the announcement rules. The rules do not clearly state what outcome applies when the first qualifying problem solved is not Yang-Mills (e.g., if P versus NP is solved first). The source does not define what constitutes a 'complete solution' or an 'official representative.'

Outcome prices and implied probabilities
Compare the quoted price for each outcome. The amounts below assume a $1 payout for a winning share.
Prices describe trading, not certainty or an independent forecast. Bid / ask for the first outcome: 0.091 / 0.093. Market liquidity is not guaranteed fill size.

Event contracts and stock returns
A company’s share price, this event’s probability and the return on an event contract answer different questions. A correct company thesis can still miss a contract’s deadline or its exact conditions.
