Spectral anti-localization regularizer

Represent intermediate feature maps on a periodic rectangular grid and regularize each individual Fourier eigenspace so that its spatial energy cannot collapse almost entirely outside a chosen observation region. The target lower bound is derived from the paper's quantitative rectangular estimate and is applied only to narrow Fourier shells, where the feature map is analogous to a degenerate Laplacian eigenfunction.

Polynomial Jacobian Non-Collapse

Add a two-output anti-collapse regularizer based on the determinant of the Jacobian Gram matrix, together with a penalty against proportional highest-degree coefficient tensors. The paper's inequality predicts that preserving coefficient non-proportionality prevents the output distribution from concentrating on thin curves or tiny regions, potentially improving coverage of a two-dimensional latent or generative output.
