Learning Discrete Riemannian Metrics for Physical Fields with Cochain-Frame Equivarianc

arXiv:2608. 14556v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Physical fields on meshes require a separation between topology and geometry: conservation laws are topological and should be exact, while geometry, material response, and anisotropic coupling must be learned from data.

Approximating Whittle-Matern Fields over Discretized Manifolds

arXiv:2606. 13827v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Markovian Whittle-Mat\'ern fields have been convergently approximated by discrete Gauss Markov Random Fields (GMRFs) with sparse precision matrices using a Finite Element approximation of the two-parameter family, \[ (\kappa^2 - \Delta)^{\alpha/2} u = \mathcal{W}, \;\; \kappa \in \mathbb{R}, \; \alpha \in \mathbb{N}.

Riemannian Deep Learning: Modules, Networks, and Geometries

arXiv:2607. 19305v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Deep neural networks on manifold-valued representations have attracted growing interest, but many basic components remain tied to specific manifolds, rely on Euclidean approximations, or require costly and numerically fragile geometric operations.

Topological Neural Operators

arXiv:2606. 09806v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We introduce Topological Neural Operators (TNOs), a principled framework for operator learning on cell complexes that lifts neural operators (NOs) from functions on points and/or edges to topological domains.

Beyond Neural Collapse: Task-Intrinsic Geometry Governs Neural Representations in Modular Arithmetic

arXiv:2606. 08985v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While neural collapse (NC) predicts that a $K$-class-balanced classifier should organize terminal representations as a $(K-1)$-dimensional simplex equiangular tight frame (ETF), modular addition consistently enters a different regime: networks compress to a two-dimensional cyclic geometry in which both classifier weights and token embeddings lie on circles.
