### Summary I'm using some fixed parameters in a pyhf model and scipy optimization. I noticed that fixed parameters are implemented using equality constraints. Only two minimization methods support equality...

Minor typo, though worth fixing https://github.com/scikit-hep/pyhf/blob/5b632519838f6ad2c73a8c8f8b53a09c1d8c678b/src/pyhf/infer/test_statistics.py#L174-L180 On L176, I think a \hat{\mu} should be replaced by 0. This is in the denominator of the \hat{\mu} < 0 case. It's easier...

Savind all local minima found by global optimization algorithms

1

Suppose I am running a global optimizer, e.g. `NLOPT_G_MLSL`. I know I can set an algorithm with which it polishes any local minima it finds by `nlopt_opt_set_local_optimizer`. However, in the...

At present, without a trailing separtor, e.g., `results_dir = 'here'`, the `results_dir`...

Respect TC:ignore for fig and table counts

1

I noticed that figures and tables (and possibly inline math and equations, not sure) are still counted even when they are inside %TC:ignore ... %TC:endignore blocks. I put my appendices/supplemental...

I was looking at the schema, trying to understand which elements are required etc. I noticed that the `lumi` modifier schema gives the name as well as the type to...
