    The extended artificial physics optimization (EAPO), a population-based, stochastic, evolutionary algorithm for multidimensional search and optimization is presented. A proof of convergence is developed that reveals the conditions under which EAPO is guaranteed to converge. EAPO's performance is compared to APO's with numerical experiments which confirm that EAPO exhibits faster convergence and better diversity. Some open questioned are proposed.
