abstract
Moduli stabilisation in string compactifications with many light scalars remains a major blind-spot in the string landscape. In these regimes, analytic methods cease to work for generic choices of UV parameters which is why numerical techniques have to be exploited. In this paper, we implement algorithms based on JAX, heavily utilising automatic differentiation, just-in-time compilation and parallelisation features, to efficiently construct string vacua. This implementation provides a golden opportunity to efficiently analyse large unexplored regions of the string landscape. As a first example, we apply our techniques to the search of Type IIB flux vacua in Calabi-Yau orientifold compactifications. We argue that our methods only scale mildly with the Hodge numbers making exhaustive studies of low energy effective field theories with $\mathcal{O}(100)$ scalar fields feasible. Using small computing resources, we are able to construct $\mathcal{O}(10^6)$ flux vacua per geometry with $h^{1,2}\geq 2$, vastly out-performing previous systematic searches. In particular, we showcase the efficiency of our methods by presenting generic vacua with fluxes below the tadpole constraint set by the orientifold with up to $h^{1,2}=25$ complex structure moduli.

Flux Vacua Near the Boundary of Large Complex Structure
Near the boundary of large complex structure, the first worldsheet instanton can displace flux vacua significantly while higher instantons stay negligible, and such vacua are common in a bounded two-modulus scan.

When minor issues matter: symmetries, pluralism, and polarization in similarity-based opinion dynamics
Even an arbitrarily small-weight issue can destabilize stable opinion states and massively slow convergence; concentrating importance on few issues raises polarization, while spreading it promotes pluralism.

Universality in the Axiverse
Normalized divisor volumes in toric Calabi-Yau threefolds appear universal, and a GOE level-spacing model with a fitted mean reproduces axion statistics across the Kreuzer-Skarke axiverse.

Solving inverse problems of Type IIB flux vacua with conditional generative models
A conditional variational autoencoder trained on known Type IIB flux vacua can generate new physically valid flux vectors with targeted superpotential values faster than Metropolis sampling.

Coexisting Flux String Vacua from Numerical K\"ahler Moduli Stabilisation
Numerical scans of Type IIB compactifications find single scalar potentials containing coexisting KKLT/LVS and Kahler-uplifted/LVS minima, including AdS, Minkowski, and dS pairs.
