The Lie We Tell: Correcting the Euclidean Fallacy in Vision Language Action Policies via Score Matching on Tangent Space

arXiv:2606. 01847v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diffusion-based Vision-Language-Action policies achieve remarkable success in robotic manipulation, yet commit a fundamental geometric error we term the $\textbf{Euclidean Fallacy}$: representing SE(3) poses as flat $\mathbb{R}^{12}$ vectors.

The Lie We Tell: Correcting the Euclidean Fallacy in Vision Language Action Policies via Score Matching on Tangent Space

Diffusion-based Vision-Language-Action policies achieve remarkable success in robotic manipulation, yet commit a fundamental geometric error we term the $\textbf{Euclidean Fallacy}$: representing SE(3) poses as flat $\mathbb{R}^{12}$ vectors. This approximation induces (1) manifold drift violating SO(3) constraints, (2) broken equivariance under coordinate transformations, and (3) non-geodesic trajectories with excessive kinematic cost.

Riemannian-Manifold Steering: Geometry-Aware Generative Autoencoders for Label-Free Steering

arXiv:2605. 24942v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Steering a language model - intervening on its internal activations to change downstream behaviour - has recently expanded beyond linear interpolation to nonlinear methods such as angular and kernelized steering, which define intervention transformations without learning an explicit geometry over paths in activation space.

RODR: Riemannian Orthogonally Decoupled Regularization for Disentangled Manifold Representation

Point cloud denoising is essentially a geometric recovery task that aims to reconstruct the intrinsic structure of a smooth 2D Riemannian manifold embedded in R^3 from noisy, discrete ambient-space samples. Despite the remarkable progress of modern manifold-aware encoders and generative transport models in geometric representation learning, a fundamental objective-geometry mismatch remains underexplored.

Surflo: Consistent 3D Surface Flow Model with Global State

Geometry is invariant to viewpoint, which makes any collection of images a redundant encoding of a single 3D state. Existing feed-forward reconstruction models fail to exploit this: per-view methods emit overlapping, unaligned pointmaps that grow linearly with input count, while global-latent methods commit to a fixed, low-resolution output.
