Conditional-TC Reveal Scheduler

Replace confidence-only masked diffusion decoding with an adaptive scheduler that chooses batches whose unrevealed tokens have low conditional total correlation given the already revealed context. The scheduler should preserve large parallel batches when token predictions are conditionally independent, but split highly dependent tokens into separate rounds to reduce forward-KL error.

Lorentz-Gram-preserving hyperbolic attention

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.
