Abstract: Theorem proving,as the intersection of logic and computer science,not only lays the formal foundation for modern mathematical reasoning,but also serves as a litmus test for evaluating the logical reasoning ability of artificial intelligence,while underpinning the fundamental demand for high reliability in software engineering.However,traditional theorem proving relies heavily on rigorous logical reasoning and labor-intensive human-computer interaction,long constrained by limited automation,insufficient reasoning efficiency,and strong dependence on expert experience.With the rapid development of large language models(LLM),their breakthrough capabilities in natural language understanding,code generation,and logical reasoning provide new opportunities to enhance the automation and intelligence of theorem proving.This paper systematically reviews the current state and emerging trends of LLM-driven formal theorem proving,focusing on two major application scenarios:1)In interactive theorem proving,we analyze how existing works alleviate the significant manual overhead,and take the Prover series in the Lean language as an example to systematically summarize its technical evolution path.2)In automated theorem proving,we explore how large language models combine techniques such as static analysis and verifier feedback to automatically generate formal specifications including function contracts and loop invariants,thereby significantly lowering the verification barrier.Finally,the paper highlights common challenges in this field,including specification completeness,reasoning reliability,data scarcity,and tool chain integration,and discusses future directions for research and development.

Key words: Theorem proving, Formal methods, Large language models, Formal verification, Formal specification
