  • Abstract
    We solve a problem of non-convex stochastic optimisation with help of simulated annealing of Lévy flights of a variable stability index. The search of the ground state of an unknown potential is non-local due to big jumps of the Levy flights process. The convergence to the ground state is fast due to a polynomial decrease rate of the temperature.
