Replace softmax attention or dense MoE routing with a normalized Rayleigh–Jeans distribution over tokens or experts. If an item's energy is close to the chemical potential, its probability becomes disproportionately large, creating controllable low-energy condensation instead of the exponentially smooth allocation produced by softmax.
Build an implicit layer from a piecewise-linear maximal monotone operator on visible variables z_* and auxiliary variables z_**, then eliminate the auxiliary block rather than exposing it in the network output. Compute the layer through a fixed point of the eliminated component of a nonexpansive resolvent, with damping when the auxiliary map is not strictly contractive.
Represent a sparse higher-order attention head by a 3-uniform hypergraph whose hyperedge $(v,x,y)$ allows anchor token $v$ to aggregate a pairwise interaction between tokens $x$ and $y$. During mask construction, greedily reject edges that would create a $4$-cycle in the link graph $L(v)$, so the same pair of source tokens cannot reach an anchor through multiple redundant pairings. This produces a diversity-constrained sparse attention pattern with an explicit, measurable collision bound.
Convert an attention or MoE routing affinity matrix into a soft graph and constrain its K_r-density relative to its observed K_s-density. The regularizer penalizes pathological affinity patterns in which moderate s-way coactivation is accompanied by an implausibly low or unstable r-way coactivation.
