Represent each of n signed tokens with two or more anticommuting feature channels and build equivariant outputs from exterior products rather than unconstrained tensor products. Penalize or project out positive-degree signed-permutation invariants, approximating the coinvariant quotient so that the layer retains order-sensitive orientation information without learning redundant invariant directions.

Use the layer at which persistent connected components and holes disappear to allocate capacity nonuniformly across a network. If representations simplify much earlier than desired, widen the responsible layers or insert an additional block; if simplification is excessively delayed, avoid spending parameters there. This turns persistent-homology COM into an actionable architecture-search signal rather than a post-hoc visualization.

Attach each token or graph node a discrete grade a in a finite group A, and modify attention value composition with a normalized group 2-cocycle rather than independent pairwise gates. The cocycle provides a globally consistent projective interaction rule, so composing three messages gives the same result under either parenthesization. This may improve relational reasoning while reducing the number of freely learned interaction parameters.

Replace fixed-radius image blur or pooling with disk averages whose radius is proportional to the distance from each pixel to the image boundary. Compute the transform at every spatial location and train a lightweight decoder to reconstruct the pre-transform feature map, using reconstruction error as an anti-collapse regularizer. This creates a scale-adaptive smoothing layer with an injectivity motivation in the continuum while providing larger context in the image interior.

Replace or augment an exponential state-space memory branch with a causal convolution whose lag-j weight is exp(-lambda j) ell(j)/j. The 1/j boundary provides broad logarithmic memory, while lambda supplies an explicit finite memory scale and prevents uncontrolled accumulation from an untempered long-memory kernel.

Use the paper's explicit square insertion surgery to generate new quad-mesh examples with altered local valence patterns but unchanged genus, unchanged non-target vertices, and unchanged rotational-holonomy subgroup. Train a mesh GNN with consistency loss or label-preserving augmentation across the original and surgically modified meshes, forcing predictions to depend on global structure rather than accidental local tessellation.

Insert a Walsh-Hadamard transform before a quantized categorical or activation bottleneck and assign coordinate-dependent quantization precision using the attenuation spectrum of a quaternary symmetric noise model. Coordinates corresponding to tensor-product frequencies with many nonzero indices are attenuated by higher powers of \(\delta\), so their quantization can be made coarser with little effect on the reconstructed post-noise representation. This creates a structured, fast transform…

Replace a large flat positional-embedding table with a recursively decoded nine-way address whose child transformations contract coordinates by exactly 1/3. Encode an input position using features attached to the address prefix at several depths, guaranteeing that increasing depth produces a geometrically localized representation and that an infinite valid address cannot ambiguously represent two distinct points. This is especially suitable for 2D vision tokens, maps, point clouds, or…

Replace a dense third-order channel-interaction tensor by a fixed sparse support selected through the paper's uniform-marginal infeasibility certificate. Supports with a large dual margin have an effective entropy base below the channel alphabet size, suggesting fewer independent interaction slices and cheaper contractions. Use the certificate either during architecture search or as a pruning score for an already-trained tensorized layer.

Use the model's non-monotonicity result to make graph connectivity a learned resource rather than assuming that every extra edge helps. An edge router assigns transmission scores but also charges a source-side collision cost for exposing an infected node to many susceptible neighbors. The resulting router can prune edges that increase competition and reduce useful reachability.

Use the signed-base expansion as a compact discrete-continuous latent parameterization for a VAE or autoencoder. A short binary sequence produces exponentially refined coordinates, while a learned Markov prior captures correlations between successive latent bits. The decoder receives the resulting bounded real coordinates instead of an unconstrained Gaussian latent vector.

Replace or augment a singular scalar activation \(\sigma\) with a distributionally regularized activation \(g\) whose Fourier transform is multiplied by \((i\rho)^\alpha\). This suppresses the problematic low-frequency singular component and can produce better-conditioned random-feature or first-layer representations, while a residual raw-activation branch prevents loss of standard approximation behavior.

Parameterize a tree-structured policy through realization weights satisfying sequence-form flow conservation, instead of independently predicting probabilities at every node. Conditional action probabilities are recovered by dividing a child sequence weight by its parent weight, guaranteeing globally consistent probabilities and avoiding invalid or contradictory branch masses.

Replace independent softmax expert choices with a collision-free Markov router whose particles occupy expert positions on a one-dimensional or circular index lattice. A particle can move only to an empty neighboring expert, and the move rate contains a product of sine ratios that globally repels nearby assignments; this should reduce expert collapse and produce more evenly spread routing without requiring a separate pairwise diversity loss.

Build a neural feature-mixing layer from a truncated shift S and a diagonal phase operator T satisfying TS=qST, with |q|=1.

Replace continuously fluctuating conditional-computation decisions with a fixed-charge (s,S) controller for the number of active experts or channel groups. If the currently provisioned capacity falls below s, activate capacity up to S; otherwise retain the current capacity, preventing repeated small routing or kernel-launch decisions. Binomial thinning models the random subset of provisioned experts or channels that are actually available after token load, dropout, failures, or admission limits.

Add an integer-lattice feasibility layer after ordinary top-1 or top-2 MoE routing. The router first produces its usual expert assignments, then minimally changes a small number of low-confidence assignments so the batch count vector lies in a prescribed lattice or desired coset, eliminating persistent modular load imbalance that ordinary auxiliary losses may not detect.
