Replace an explicit attention step by an implicit Euler step that solves a proximal subproblem involving the Hopfield energy. The new state is evaluated inside the softmax self-consistently, which makes the method less sensitive to large step sizes and can prevent explicit attention from overshooting or tunneling between attraction basins.
Normalize attention or router logits and control their upper tail using the paper's sharper Gaussian-maximum exponent rather than a correlation-blind sub-Gaussian bound. Use the resulting threshold to add a soft penalty or adaptive temperature whenever the observed maximum exceeds the calibrated level, reducing rare one-token or one-expert domination.
Constrain a learned binary graph or sparse attention-routing graph so that every node neighborhood has no independent set of size k. This local anti-star condition gives an explicit upper bound on the graph Laplacian spectral radius, allowing a larger but certified stable diffusion step or residual propagation coefficient.
