Group-Equivariant Poincar\'e Convolutional Networks

arXiv:2607. 00556v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While recent advancements like the Poincar\'e ResNet have demonstrated the potential of learning visual representations directly in hyperbolic space, their optimisation remains hampered by the computationally intensive nature of Riemannian gradients and the strict boundaries of the manifold.

Group-Equivariant Poincaré Convolutional Networks

While recent advancements like the Poincaré ResNet have demonstrated the potential of learning visual representations directly in hyperbolic space, their optimisation remains hampered by the computationally intensive nature of Riemannian gradients and the strict boundaries of the manifold. Furthermore, standard hyperbolic networks treat spatial transformations of the same object as distinct hierarchical concepts, leading to redundant parameter usage and vanishing signals.

hyperbolix: Hyperbolic Deep Learning in JAX

hyperbolix is an open‑source library for hyperbolic deep learning in JAX, built on Flax NNX. It provides six manifolds—including Euclidean, Poincaré ball, hyperboloid, κ‑stereographic, mixed‑curvature product, and proper velocity space—through a common interface, and implements a wide range of layer families (linear, convolution, attention, normalization, positional encoding, regression, vector quantization). The library also supplies Riemannian optimizers, wrapped distributions, dimensionality‑reduction techniques, and precision‑tested operations that replace numerically unstable formulas on the hyperboloid, ensuring accurate float32 computations at large distances.

The Reverse Telescoping Coordinate System for Positive Definite Matrices: Geometry, Computation, and Generative Modeling

arXiv:2606. 15442v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We design a new unconstrained coordinate system where a $p\times p$ symmetric positive definite (SPD) matrix $\Theta$ is represented by a reverse telescoping map $\Theta(x)=\rm{RT}(x)$, with $x=(v,d,r)\in\mathbb{R}\times\mathbb{R}^{(p-1)}\times\mathbb{R}^{p(p-1)/2}$, representing respectively the log volume or log determinant; and the shape, as encoded by log relative diagonal scales and partial covariances among the nodes.
