arXiv:2607. 03347v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We consider the Multiscale Single-Index Model (MSIM), first introduced in \cite{oymak2021learning}, as a stylized model for hierarchical learning with \emph{scale separation}.

arXiv:2606. 04065v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study simultaneous alternating power iteration for fixed-order asymmetric rank-one spiked tensor models.
We investigate how each component of the Transformer feedforward block architecture design determines how much rank survives across depth at initialization. We reinterpret skip connections and normalization, long understood as controlling magnitude, as mechanisms for preserving gradient rank across depth, since the very matrix multiplications and nonlinear activations that make the network expressive also reduce the rank.
arXiv:2606. 05957v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Singular learning theory and information geometry have studied the same parameter spaces in mostly separate vocabularies: the former computes Bayesian invariants in resolved coordinates, the latter works in original coordinates under a non-degeneracy assumption that overparameterised models routinely violate.
arXiv:2606. 02596v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The curvature exponent $\alpha$ in $h_k \propto \sigma_k^\alpha$ -- governing how Hessian eigenvalues scale with gradient singular values -- varies systematically across layer types ($\alpha \approx 2$ for convolutions, $\approx 1$ for transformer attention, $< 1$ for MLP up-projections).
arXiv:2607. 14018v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We investigate how each component of the Transformer feedforward block architecture design determines how much rank survives across depth at initialization.
arXiv:2607. 28080v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We extend a recently introduced Entropy-Optimal Manifold Clustering (EOMC) to allow for a joint simultaneous identification of subsets and subspaces of relevant features in nonstationary and nonlinear regression problems.
