Handwritten mathematical expression recognition (HMER) requires reasoning over diverse symbols and structures, yet autoregressive models struggle with exposure bias and syntax inconsistency. We present GryphOne, a discrete diffusion framework which reformulates HMER as iterative symbolic refinement instead of sequential generation. GryphOne progressively refines symbols and relations, removing autoregression and improving consistency. Symbol-aware tokenization and random-masking mutual learning further enhance robustness to handwriting diversity. On the MathWriting benchmark, GryphOne achieves 5.51% CER and 59.9% EM (ExpRate), outperforming all reimplemented models in the matched setting as well as the commercial HMER system. Held-out evaluation on CROHME 2014-2023 further shows strong cross-dataset generalization.
