The paper develops a concrete algebraic invariant of quiver mutation: an equivariant Euler matrix over the Laurent polynomial ring \(R=\mathbb{Z}[t,t^{-1}]\), whose cokernel is unchanged by vertex gauging and graded quiver mutation. This suggests neural modules whose directed interaction graph may be rewired or reparameterized while preserving an exact algebraic state, rather than relying on arbitrary architecture-dependent coordinates. The most practical transfer is to use the Euler matrix as a signed structured mixing operator and its normalized determinant as a mutation-invariant regularizer for graph, MoE, or attention routing. The payoff is a testable route to stable dynamic rewiring with an invariant diagnostic and lower sensitivity to equivalent parameterizations.
Use the normalized determinant of a routing or attention interaction matrix as a global spectral signature. Penalize abrupt changes in this Laurent-polynomial signature when the model learns or dynamically rewires its interaction graph, preserving global connectivity patterns while still allowing local edge adaptation.
Represent a directed interaction graph by a Laurent-polynomial Euler-like matrix and use its evaluation as a signed message-passing or attention-mixing operator. During dynamic rewiring, require the new graph representation to preserve the associated bilinear form up to the congruence transformation induced by the change of basis, so equivalent routings produce equivalent hidden states.
