PSI Reports Machine-Checked Proof of Aaronson-Ambainis Conjecture

Physical Superintelligence announced on November 6, 2026 that an internal research system running instances of a non-public Anthropic model had found a proof of the Aaronson-Ambainis conjecture, a quantum-computing problem open since 2008. The system produced a complete proof during the third day of a run on PSI’s own infrastructure…

New formulas describe boundary layer turbulence

"In particular, we get insights into Lagrangian turbulence," says Björn Birnir, referencing the theory that describes turbulent behavior in a reference fame that moves with the flow, like a raft on a river. (Credit: Ingolf Zeiner Petersen/Flickr) Mathematicians have derived the formulas for boundary layer turbulence 100 years after the…
