Prime-Gated Maximal-Length Binary Reservoir

Replace a learned recurrent transition with a sparse binary reservoir compiled from prime-count gates. Three permanently active control vertices implement copy and XNOR transitions, allowing the signal state to realize an affine feedback register over \(\mathbb F_2\) with period \(2^m-1\) using only \(O(m)\) edges and bounded in-degree. Train only an input projection and readout, or use straight-through estimators if end-to-end adaptation is required.

Quasiperiodic Additive State Module

Use the paper's skew product as a parameter-free recurrent state: one phase rotates by an irrational increment and a second state accumulates a lacunary Fourier readout of that phase. This supplies deterministic long-range memory with only scalar updates, avoiding a learned recurrent transition matrix and its potentially unstable spectrum.
