What the math gives to ML

The paper gives a constructive route to representing many vectors using one seed vector and a family of unitary transformations while keeping the resulting orbit close to a Parseval frame. The transferable asset is the combination of near-isometric frame bounds, sequential selection of weakly correlated orbit elements, and quotienting transformations that differ only by a phase. This can become a compact associative-memory or attention-key generator in which one learned seed replaces a large bank of independently learned slots. A finite-dimensional implementation can test the theorem's structural idea using empirical Gram-spectrum control even when the exact representation-theoretic decay assumptions are unavailable.

Near-Parseval Unitary Orbit Memory

Generate memory slots or attention keys by applying learned unitary transformations to one seed vector instead of storing every slot independently. Select transformations sequentially when they add a sufficiently new direction and reject phase-equivalent or highly coherent candidates, targeting a well-conditioned near-Parseval frame.
