What the math gives to ML

The paper constructs a complete Kähler metric from the logarithmic exhaustion g=-log(-rho) and proves that its Laplacian has exact spectral bottom n^2 under a finite weighted Monge–Ampère mass condition. The transferable mechanism is a logarithmic barrier metric: it makes approach to the boundary infinitely long while keeping the exhaustion gradient bounded through |partial g|_omega^2 <= 1. In neural optimization, this suggests replacing Euclidean updates on bounded parameters or normalized representations with Riemannian updates using the Hessian of a logarithmic barrier. The exact n^2 theorem is not automatically an optimizer guarantee, but the construction gives a concrete, testable way to suppress boundary-induced instability.

Complete Log-Barrier Natural Gradient

Constrain a neural parameter block to a bounded open domain and replace its Euclidean optimizer with a Riemannian gradient induced by the Hessian of the logarithmic barrier g=-log(-rho). The metric diverges near the boundary, so updates automatically become small when parameters approach saturation or an invalid region, while the logarithmic exhaustion has bounded intrinsic gradient.

Barrier Geometry for Saturating Representations

Use the logarithmic exhaustion as a geometry for bounded hidden representations rather than only as a parameter constraint. A representation approaching the boundary receives an increasingly large metric, making ordinary Euclidean motion expensive and discouraging brittle saturation while preserving a bounded intrinsic gradient for the boundary coordinate.
