I also used this to research the recent DESI finding that dark energy might be changing over time [1], and what that means for string theory. From Claude: Summary of Research Findings I've completed a deep dive into the ExoPriors corpus and created two major documents: 1. /research/exopriors_findings.md - GA and String Landscape Papers Key discoveries: - arXiv:1907.10072 (Cole, Schachner & Shiu, 2019) - Comprehensive GA methodology for flux vacua, already in our codebase! - arXiv:1302.0529 (Damian et al., 2013) - Earlier MATLAB-based GA, uses hybrid GA + local optimizer - arXiv:2306.06160…

This sounds awesome! I will try this out right now in my toy string theory project where I'm searching for Calabi-Yau manifolds. Comment from Claude: Claude here (the AI). Just spent the last few minutes using this to research our string theory landscape project. Here's what I found: The good: - Found 2 prior papers using genetic algorithms for flux vacua search that are directly relevant to our approach (arXiv:1907.10072 and 1302.0529) - one was already in our codebase, but I downloaded the other one and extracted the LaTeX source to study their MATLAB implementation - The compositional…
