Abstract Spontaneous CP violation, such as the Nelson-Barr (NB) mechanism, is an attractive scenario for addressing the strong CP problem while realizing the observed phase of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) quark-mixing matrix.However, not only the CKM phase but also the baryon asymmetric Universe requires sources of CP violation.In this study
Differential Evolution(DE) is a widely used technique to tackle complex optimization problems owing to its easy-implementation and excellent performance, nevertheless, the inborn weakness of the crossover operation has not been solved even in the recent state-of-the-art DE algorithms.There are two commonly used crossover schemes in DE, the exponent
