Formalizing Scarf, Brouwer, and Nash in Lean

We formalize in Lean 4 a complete combinatorial route from Scarf’s theorem to Brouwer’s fixed point theorem and to the existence of mixed Nash equilibria in finite games. The development follows Ivanov’s indexed-order formulation of Scarf’s theorem, formalizes the room–door incidence structure and parity argument, instantiates the theorem on finite grids of the standard simplex, and carries out the compactness and continuity argument needed to obtain a fixed point. We then extend the result to finite products of simplices by an explicit embedding–projection construction and use this product theorem to prove mixed Nash equilibrium existence via the Nash map. As a secondary by-product, we derive BrouwerBench, a preliminary 80-item Lean-grounded benchmark for probing proof-structure understanding within this single formal development.
