claudia16 (X) Dec 14, 2009:
Mr x presented this result but not formal proof...
many828 (asker) Dec 14, 2009:
Mr x, in a scientific paper, claim that "a=b". This claim was correct, but he did not offer the proof in that paper (although there was no doubt that it was correct -in this sense it is different from my remark on Fermat). Mr y writes another scientific paper to show the proof and starts "Mr. X adelantó este resultado pero no ofreció una prueba formal".
Muriel Vasconcellos Dec 14, 2009:
Infer a result Based on Claudia's explanation, I have offered an alternative to my earlier answer. 'Infer' is the usual expression for what she describes.
claudia16 (X) Dec 14, 2009:
many828 Al mencionar el teorema de Fermat le das un sentido distinto a tu consulta y yo diría que la respuesta es algo como "surmise a result" que es inferir en base a evidencia incompleta.
Muriel Vasconcellos Dec 14, 2009:
Is this a nice or a naughty thing? My understanding was that it implies irregular conduct. Am I correct?
many828 (asker) Dec 13, 2009:
el sentido apunta a enunciar un resultado sin ofrecer una prueba en ese momento. Como el teorema de fermat.

Thanks, Roxio!
agree Wendy Petzall : I would only use "anticipate a result" rather than disclose, which would imply a knowledge -with certainty- that is revealed, while the present sentence seems to indicate that proof will be found / provided (as in not yet available) later Right you are!

Thanks, wm, although I'd say that the knowledge is already available, but not the proof or demonstration, which will be given at a later stage.

Based on Claudia's explanation, "claim" might be a bit too strong.
An alternative would be "infer a result":
