arXiv:2606. 04754v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Many striking phenomena in deep learning, such as linear mode connectivity and the structured behavior of training dynamics, are closely tied to parameter symmetries: transformations that leave the realized function unchanged.

Equivariant Neural Networks (ENNs) have empowered numerous applications in scientific fields. Despite their remarkable capacity for representing geometric structures, ENNs suffer from degraded expressivity when processing symmetric inputs: the output representations are invariant to transformations that extend beyond the input's symmetries.

Abstract: When a network has learned a function with a known symmetry, can that symmetry be moved through the parametrisation---is there a motion in parameter sp...

arXiv:2602. 19799v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Despite recent algorithmic advances, we still lack principled ways to leverage the well-documented rescaling symmetries in ReLU neural network parameters.

arXiv:2606. 10913v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We explore whether intrinsic symmetries of the training data lead to conserved quantities during gradient-flow training of neural networks.

arXiv:2607. 07845v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The Hessian of the training loss governs the local geometry of the loss landscape, yet despite existing explanations for its largest eigenvalues, the origin of the vast multitude of vanishingly small eigenvalues remains elusive.

arXiv:2508. 03867v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We introduce a class of algebraic varieties naturally associated with ReLU neural networks, arising from the piecewise linear structure of their outputs across activation regions in input space, and the piecewise multilinear structure in parameter space.
