On the close date I will inspect the mathlib code-base to find theorems related to computational complexity theory. I will then try to assess whether the model of computation in these theorems is best described as a form of the lambda calculus (rather than models like Turing machines or RAM). If most of the theorems are based on lambda calcului, I will resolve YES, otherwise NO.
This question is managed and resolved by Manifold.

@wadimiusz Currently I believe the only computational model is TM-based, but a group of mathlib developers have been discussing the use of lambda-calculus and I believe most of them think it would be easier. See this thread for discussion.
@BoltonBailey you should advertise your markets on Lean's zulip, I think! They are very cool.
