AI-assisted realization of the Mathieu group M₂₃ over the rationals

Huang, Jackson, Lee, Poonen, Pries and Zhang construct an explicit degree-23 polynomial whose splitting field over the rationals has Galois group M₂₃. They also construct a regular M₂₃ extension of Q(t), completing the realization program for all 26 sporadic finite simple groups.
