Cyclic Recurrence

The specific looped mechanism studied: a fixed sequence of layers repeated in a cyclic pattern

Neighborhood — ranked by edge-count

Related by similarity (8)

cosine ≥ 0.65 · no typed edge

Entities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.

  • Processing where the same operation is applied repeatedly via weight sharing, as in RNNs; contrasts with implementational recurrence.
  • Transformers are recurrent through autoregression because the K/V stream provides horizontal information flow across positions, even though each forward pass is feedforward.
  • Recurrence via feedback loops where individual neurons process information repeatedly.
  • Cyclic Fixed Pointconcept0.786
    The key theoretical contribution: each layer in a cyclic recurrence converges to a distinct fixed point, tracing a consistent trajectory in latent space
  • repetitionconcept0.777
    The reappearance of similar elements, essential for unity and order in a living floor or ceiling.
  • Cyclic Geometryconcept0.763
    One of the geometric structures used to characterize reasoning task representations in language models, used as a test case for manifold steering
  • The process by which centers are built up, strengthened, and toughened from other centers, deepening their I-like quality.
  • Llama's discovered algorithm: first compute integer sum via base-10 addition, then map the sum back to cyclic concept space
