- The circular geometric structure that cyclically ordered concepts (days, months) exhibit in both representation and behavior space.
- Mechanical timer concept used throughout paper to illustrate operational principle and formal modeling of concepts
- The natural cycle length of a cyclic concept (e.g., 12 for months, 7 for days of the week)
- Experimental paradigm using prompts like 'what month is six months after August?' to study model arithmetic
- Key empirical result: days-of-week appear as identical circular manifold in both Llama-3.1-8B internal activations and output token probability distributions.
- Llama's discovered algorithm: first compute integer sum via base-10 addition, then map the sum back to cyclic concept space
- Central entity of Jackson's framework: a structure invented to give coherent account of immediate consequences of actions; the building block of software design
