Set the residual propagation coefficient of a simplicial neural layer from a cheap upper bound on the operator spectrum instead of tuning it blindly. The degree-majorization theorem supplies a bound on the largest eigenvalue, while the Brouwer-type inequality supplies a topology-count-based bound on sums of the top eigenvalues.
Learn or select sparse cyclic convolution or relative-attention offsets whose pairwise differences collide less often modulo the sequence length. The paper's Fourier fourth-power identity turns this combinatorial objective into an FFT-computable differentiable loss, enabling fixed-K sparse patterns with lower aliasing and interference than random offsets.
