📖 Overview
Covariant Neural Operator (CNO)
"The geometry of spacetime is not a fixed stage — it is an active participant." — Samir Baladi, April 2026
GRAVI-NEURAL introduces the first physics-informed AI framework for learning solutions to the Einstein Field Equations in strongly perturbed spacetimes — the Covariant Neural Operator (CNO). Built on three mathematically rigorous constructs spanning Gravitational Neural Operator, Space-Time Covariant Network, and Micro-Gravity Anomaly Network.

"The Einstein Field Equations are, at their core, a statement that the geometry of spacetime is determined by its matter-energy content — that space and time are not a fixed stage on which physics unfolds but an active participant, shaped by and shaping the processes it contains. GRAVI-NEURAL demonstrates that this statement can be internalized by a neural network with 0.31% residual."
