arXiv:2505. 19809v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In many real-world applications of regression, conditional probability estimation, and uncertainty quantification, exploiting symmetries rooted in physics or geometry can dramatically improve generalization and sample efficiency.

arXiv:2606. 05042v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Marginal inference in discrete graphical models forces a choice between exactness and scalability: exact algorithms are intractable for high-treewidth graphs, while iterative approximations (Belief Propagation, variational methods) sacrifice convergence guarantees on frustrated topologies.

arXiv:2607. 03809v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Normalising flows provide a powerful variational family for approximate inference, yet individual architectures often fail to generalise across heterogeneous posterior geometries.

arXiv:2606. 03260v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep learning surrogates for 3D Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) often fail to generalize across geometric transformations because they depend heavily on specific coordinate systems.

arXiv:2606. 03003v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A latent world model built from an equivariant encoder $E$ and an equivariant predictor $f$ inherits a provable symmetry of its training loss: when the world's dynamics genuinely carries a group $G$ acting on latents by an orthogonal representation $\rho(g)$, the one-step prediction relMSE is exactly invariant across the whole group, so fitting the dynamics on a restricted slice of orientations mathematically determines it on the entire orbit (j\v{u} y\=i f\v{a}n s\=an).

arXiv:2410. 10137v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We develop Riemannian approaches to variational autoencoders (VAEs) for PDE-type ambient data with regularizing geometric latent dynamics, which we refer to as VAE-DLM, or VAEs with dynamical latent manifolds.

arXiv:2511. 09432v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Machine learning (ML) models achieve remarkable performance but remain hard to interpret due to their scale and complexity.

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}.

arXiv:2606. 17513v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Neural operators provide fast surrogates for PDEs but their deterministic predictions limit their use in tasks requiring uncertainty quantification (UQ), especially under geometric variability.
