Represent MoE experts as leaves of a balanced ternary tree and regularize the hierarchical boundary of each expert's assignment mask. At fixed routing mass x, the ternary martingale isoperimetric theorem supplies the explicit minimum one-variation T_3(x), so the router can be penalized according to an occupancy-dependent profile rather than a uniform parent-child disagreement cost. This should favor coherent, stable routing regions while preventing small expert supports from obtaining…
Replace an unconstrained deep routing tree by a q-ary descendant hierarchy with an explicit even height h=0,2,4,... labeling feature scale or computation depth. Train the router so that empirical occupancy of heights follows the exact even-sector law from the Nagao quotient, preventing concentration at shallow layers or unstable overuse of very deep paths.
Replace or augment conventional dot-product attention with features generated by a convex polytope's lattice Laplace partition function. For a query-dependent point inside a learnable polytope, the log-partition gradient is the expected lattice direction under a Gibbs distribution, while its Hessian is a covariance matrix that supplies curvature-aware features.
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.
Construct a sparse attention mask from a fixed regular candidate graph and one scalar random label per token, retaining edge $(u,v)$ when $x_u+x_v\geq\tau$. Unlike independent random pruning, this produces correlated neighborhoods and a controllable distribution of token degrees, potentially giving some tokens broad receptive fields while retaining a fixed sparse budget.
Replace a neural layer's dense parameters by a real parameter tensor and a binary activity mask, then update the mask using importance scores measured across multiple perturbation intervals. Gates that repeatedly occur in non-dominated accuracy–cost configurations receive larger scores and are more likely to be retained or activated, avoiding uniformly random sparse rewiring.
Calibrate the maximum attention logit in each head against the log-correlated extreme-value law instead of applying fixed clipping or a fixed max-norm penalty. Penalize only maxima that exceed the predicted log N minus three-quarter log log N baseline by an unusually large order-one fluctuation, allowing ordinary sharp attention while suppressing rare pathological spikes.
Estimate how strongly each neural block contracts distinguishability and use the paper's weighted composition inequality to allocate depth, residual strength, or precision where information is actually preserved. Blocks that strongly contract information beyond the reference path receive a smaller residual gate, higher numerical precision, or are replaced by a cheaper identity-like operation.
Construct metric-graph Laplacian positional encodings only at frequencies whose empirical eigenvalues are statistically stable under the paper’s $(n v_\mu(h))^{-1/2}$ law. Use local ball-mass estimates and empirical eigengaps to gate or downweight unreliable eigenvectors, preventing small-sample spectral noise from entering a GNN or graph transformer.
Replace explicitly stored independent random positional features with deterministic multiplicative phase features generated from a small table of random phases indexed by primes. Restrict positions to integers whose prime factors exceed a slowly growing threshold, because the paper's central-limit result says periodic weighted sums over these rough integers recover Gaussian behavior despite strong multiplicative dependence.
