arXiv:2606.26164v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Finding all modes of a multimodal black-box function is a fundamental challenge in optimization, Bayesian inference, and scientific computing. Existing approaches -- basin-hopping, CMA-ES, multistart gradient descent -- operate sequentially and cannot exploit the massive parallelism of modern GPU hardware. We introduce \chisao{} (\textbf{C}onvergence-\textbf{H}alt-\textbf{I}nvert-\textbf{S}tick-\textbf{A}nd-\textbf{O}scillate), a GPU-native population optimizer that runs an entire sample batch simultaneously and exploits a deliberate convergence-
