What the math gives to ML

The paper provides a constructive Krylov-space description of classical dynamics: phase-space Poisson evolution is represented in an orthonormal Lanczos chain, and the spreading of an initial observable along that chain defines Krylov complexity. Its most transferable mechanisms are microcanonical, energy-shell-resolved complexity and the quantitative early-time growth scale controlled by Lanczos coefficients. A neural-network implementation can apply the same construction to hidden-state or parameter-space vector fields to detect shell-dependent instability and adapt learning rates, recurrent step sizes, or inference horizons before conventional loss divergence appears.

Microcanonical Krylov Stability Monitor

Construct a Lanczos chain for the neural-network vector field or hidden-state evolution, separately within bins of approximately constant loss, energy, or activation norm. Use the resulting Krylov complexity and Lanczos-coefficient growth as an early-warning signal for unstable training or long-horizon hidden-state amplification, then reduce the learning rate or recurrent integration step only in the unstable shells.
