## Abstract (arXiv)

Geometry reasoning is naturally stateful: solving a problem repeatedly alternates between structural proposals and exact deductions. We formulate this process as dense neural-symbolic coupling, in which neural guidance and symbolic execution share a typed state and communicate through executable actions at every search step. Neural proposals contribute theorem instances, constructions, and algebraic bridges; the symbolic runtime applies registered rules, propagates exact constraints, and records provenance. A nested controller allocates computation first between neural and symbolic proposal sources and then among admitted actions. We instantiate the framework in OmniGeo, a single solver for plane, analytic, and solid geometry. With Claude Sonnet 4.6, OmniGeo reaches 94.2%, 88.5%, and 89.8% on FormalGeo7K, Conic10K, and SolidFGeo, respectively (90.8% macro average), and solves 21/30 IMO-AG-30 problems.
