arXiv:2608. 02071v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Attention-only dynamical theories model Transformer residual directions as particles aggregating on a sphere.

arXiv:2607. 17696v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We develop an adjoint-sensitivity framework for positional influence in causal residual Transformers and separate unconditional analytic results from conditional boundary-shape conclusions.

arXiv:2602. 06883v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The smoothness of the transformer architecture has been extensively studied in the context of generalization, training stability, and adversarial robustness.

arXiv:2607. 22367v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Feature-attribution methods assign scores relating input variables to a model's output, but do not by themselves characterize how explicitly defined interaction operators compose across its intermediate layers.

arXiv:2502. 00213v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Transformers are difficult to optimize with stochastic gradient descent (SGD) and largely rely on adaptive optimizers such as Adam.

arXiv:2607. 25663v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Transformer adaptation is typically distributed across model depth, even when the intended change is narrow.
