This work proves that an $n$-dimensional hybrid system can be embedded into an $m$-dimensional Euclidean space equipped with a continuous vector field on its embedded image whenever $m>2n$. This result suggests that an intrinsically discontinuous hybrid system generically admits a continuous extrinsic representation that is well-posed for differentiable optimization.

In the physical world we inhabit, space and time are fundamentally continuous. However, existing machine learning paradigms for world modeling are largely confined to discrete-time prediction, thereby exhibiting significant inefficiency in capturing the dynamics of physical world.
