How AI Agents Discover Scientific Equations: From Hydrotope Rediscovery to New Water-Wave Amplitudes

We study how AI agents discover and validate scientific formulas using a controlled case study of the hydrotope, a recently discovered geometric formula that combines the different polynomial pieces of nonlinear surface-wave scattering into one global expression. This problem is deceptively difficult: simple formulas c …
