Cluster recurrent modules or MoE experts by the geometry of their observed finite-horizon input-output behaviors rather than by parameter distance. Train one shared optimizer/controller or low-rank adapter per cluster while retaining module-specific parameters and routing. This should reduce control and optimizer overhead without merging modules whose temporal responses are dynamically incompatible.
Replace a conventional two-layer channel mixer in a reversible architecture with the tropicalization of two cluster mutations. For every pair of channels, the block applies sign-dependent integer shears and reflections, giving a cheap piecewise-linear transformation that is exactly invertible and requires no stored activations during backpropagation. Continuous trainable affine scale and mixing parameters can be placed around the fixed tropical core.
Normalize a learned symplectic recurrent transition using the paper's explicit positive-definite factor instead of projecting the entire matrix onto an orthogonal group. Retain the compact unitary dynamics as the stable transport component and separately damp only the noncompact factor, providing a tunable stability mechanism that preserves symplectic structure.
Use paired recurrent channels with exactly reciprocal gains while applying a common phase rotation. One channel carries a controlled expanding mode and the other a matching contracting mode, creating a tunable hyperbolic memory spectrum without the optimization fragility of an unconstrained recurrent matrix.
Build a recurrent block as a fixed or learned ordering of local vertex foldings, mirroring the paper's identification of staircase solution maps with Coxeter elements of a folding group. Each folding changes one polygon coordinate by a rational cross-ratio completion while leaving all other coordinates unchanged. The resulting structured recurrence is reversible and can support constant-memory backpropagation by recomputing folds in reverse order.
