SASA replaces single-vector decoders in SAEs with learned subspaces plus block sparsity and nuclear-norm regularization, proving that a single group becomes the global minimizer once block size meets intrinsic dimension and yielding polynomial rather than exponential sample complexity.

Neural networks admit large families of approximately equivalent solutions via neuron identifiability even without structural symmetry, enabling linear low-loss merging paths without prior alignment.
SGD on neural network weights induces a BBP phase transition that detaches signal eigenvalues from the random bulk, yielding an analytically solvable phase diagram for trainability in a linear teacher-student model.
Discriminative factorization distinguishes high-quality query sets for black-box model classification, with chance-level error decaying exponentially in query budget and parameters predicting empirical decay rates on auditing tasks.
Stylistic rewrites of harmful prompts raise attack success rates from 3.84% to 36.8-65% across 31 frontier models, indicating weak generalization in safety refusals.
ResBM achieves 128x activation compression in pipeline-parallel transformer training by adding a residual bottleneck module that preserves a low-rank identity path, with no major loss in convergence or added overhead.
The Master Key Hypothesis states that capabilities are low-dimensional directions transferable across models through linear subspace alignment, with UNLOCK demonstrating gains such as 12.1% accuracy improvement on MATH when transferring CoT from 14B to 7B models.
SHARe-KAN compresses KAN prediction-head storage by 9.3X via post-training vector quantization at a 2-point mAP cost on PASCAL VOC detection, with no retraining and good zero-shot transfer.
Zeroth-order optimization is underexplored rather than underpowered in deep learning, with limitations stemming from full-space designs that can be addressed via subspace, spectral, and systems-aware approaches.
Poetic jailbreaks succeed because they induce distinct attention patterns in LLMs that are independent of harmful-content detection, not because models fail to recognize literary formatting.
RLVR exhibits implicit reward overfitting to training data and optimizes heavy-tailed singular spectra with rank-1 focus on reasoning capability.
Formalizes emergent intelligence in foundation models as the limit of E(N,P,K) as N,P,K approach infinity, proves existence conditions via nonlinear Lipschitz operators, and derives scaling laws from covering numbers.
