Ergodic topology sampling toward the continuum with Stochastic Normalizing Flows

In this work we provide numerical evidence that topological freezing in $\mathrm{SU}(3)$ Yang-Mills theory can be mitigated with a flow-based approach, as tested at lattice spacings as fine as 0.03~fm. We do so by analyzing the scaling of the costs of a computational strategy based on the combinatio
