Aaron Fenyes	69a704d414	Use notes' sign convention for light cone basis	2024-07-17 23:07:34 -07:00
Aaron Fenyes	5abd4ca6e1	Revert "Give spheres positive radii in examples" ... This reverts commit 4728959ae0, which actually gave the spheres negative radii! I got confused by the sign convention differences between the notes and the engine.	2024-07-17 17:49:43 -07:00
Aaron Fenyes	4728959ae0	Give spheres positive radii in examples ... This changes the meaning of `indep_val` in the overlapping pyramids example, so we adjust `indep_val` to get a nice-looking construction.	2024-07-17 17:22:33 -07:00
Aaron Fenyes	2038103d80	Write examples directly in light cone basis	2024-07-17 15:37:14 -07:00
Aaron Fenyes	bde42ebac0	Switch engine to light cone basis	2024-07-17 14:30:43 -07:00
Aaron Fenyes	94e0d321d5	Switch back to BigFloat precision in examples	2024-07-15 14:31:30 -07:00
Aaron Fenyes	7b3efbc385	Clean up backtracking gradient descent code ... Drop experimental singularity handling strategies. Reduce the default tolerance to within 64-bit floating point precision. Report success.	2024-07-15 13:15:15 -07:00
Aaron Fenyes	25b09ebf92	Sketch backtracking Newton's method ... This code is a mess, but I'm committing it to record a working state before I start trying to clean up.	2024-07-15 11:32:04 -07:00
Aaron Fenyes	3910b9f740	Use Newton's method for polishing	2024-07-11 13:43:52 -07:00
Aaron Fenyes	ea354b6c2b	Randomize guess in gradient descent test ... Randomly perturb the pre-solved part of the guess, and randomly choose the unsolved part.	2024-07-07 17:56:12 -07:00
Aaron Fenyes	17fefff61e	Name gradient descent test more specifically	2024-07-02 17:16:19 -07:00
