arXiv:2606. 28464v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In the optimization of neural networks, gradient dynamics are influenced by critical points that arise from the model's architecture.
arXiv:2508. 03867v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We introduce a class of algebraic varieties naturally associated with ReLU neural networks, arising from the piecewise linear structure of their outputs across activation regions in input space, and the piecewise multilinear structure in parameter space.
The paper introduces a new mathematical framework for polynomial group convolutional neural networks (PGCNNs) using graded group algebras. It presents two natural parametrizations of the architecture—based on Hadamard and Kronecker products—that are related by a linear map. The authors compute the dimension of the resulting neuromanifold, show it depends only on the number of layers and group size, and describe the general fiber of the Kronecker parametrization, conjecturing a similar description for the Hadamard case, supported by explicit computations for small groups and shallow networks.

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.
