Riemannian Neural Hamiltonian Flows: Geodesic Symplectic Transport and Interpretability

The paper introduces Riemannian Neural Hamiltonian Flows, a generative model that extends Hamiltonian normalizing flows to Riemannian manifolds by combining a fixed kinetic energy, a learned scalar potential, and a geodesic leapfrog integrator. It provides an analysis showing how the learned Hamiltonian can be interpreted through an implicit profile and a matched potential, with special cases such as isotropic Gaussian and local harmonic analysis around modes. Experiments on Euclidean, hyperbolic, and spherical spaces demonstrate competitive sample quality and computational efficiency compared to a Riemannian continuous normalizing flow, while confirming the interpretability of the learned potential.
