Abstract
We give a nonnegative step function with 575 equally spaced intervals such that This improves upon a recent result of Deepmind's AlphaEvolve, which found a nonnegative step function with 50 equally space intervals for which the left hand side is . Our function was found using simulated annealing and gradient based methods rather than using large language models.
