Witten's new chiral fermion paper credits Claude Opus 5.5 with key lattice variant
dmvaldman · x · 2026-11-05
Edward Witten published a new paper yesterday on lattice definitions of gauge theories with chiral fermions.
A screenshot shows the text explicitly stating that "Anthropic's Claude Opus 5.5 suggested a likely variant" that smoothly interpolates link holonomies, making lattice variables depend only on boundary data — a substantive technical contribution inside the paper itself.
