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.
The paper proposes a conjecture that composing a fixed number of distinct nonconstant polynomials with a generic high‑degree polynomial produces linearly independent polynomials, extending Newman–Slater’s theorem. The authors prove the conjecture for two polynomials and for any number when the degrees are bounded, and they show how these results explain the parameter symmetries of deep fully connected neural networks with generic polynomial activations. In particular, for architectures with layer‑specific activations of increasing degree, the conjecture’s proven cases fully characterize the parameter sets that yield the same end‑to‑end network function, and it also resolves the identifiability of shallow polynomial networks.
