Replace a pixelwise density decoder with a decoder that predicts coefficients of a transport potential relative to a fixed reference density. The reconstructed density is the pushforward of the reference measure through a differentiable transport map, so positivity and total mass are structural properties rather than learned penalties.
Replace orthogonal Procrustes alignment between two latent dynamical systems with a learned bijection h that makes their transitions commute: h(f(z)) approximately equals g(h(z)). Parameterize h as an invertible affine map or coupling flow, allowing the correspondence to be non-orthogonal while retaining an exact inverse. The same constraint can be applied over multiple rollout steps, encouraging two models to represent the same computation even when their latent coordinates differ…
Replace an unconstrained nonlinearity on hyperbolic pairwise similarities with a function from the paper's exact Lorentz–Gram preserver family. The transformed similarity matrix remains realizable as Lorentz inner products of future-directed unit timelike vectors, allowing a network to sharpen or smooth hyperbolic neighborhoods without introducing geometrically impossible pairwise relations.
Replace spectral-radius-only stabilization of a recurrent or state-space transition matrix with a numerical-range constraint. Penalize directions in which the Hermitian part of a rotated transition matrix has a large maximal eigenvalue, controlling nonnormal transient amplification and polynomial state propagation.
Given arbitrary pairwise preference logits, project their skew-symmetric part onto the additive-consistent subspace before converting logits into probabilities or rankings. This removes cyclic inconsistency using the Frobenius-nearest consistent matrix, guaranteeing transitive pairwise predictions while preserving the closest possible signal under squared error.
