framework
- Core framework: necessary conditions on graph topology for ordered phases to exist in locally-interacting systems.
- Neural network architecture based on attention, commonly used in large language models
- Second model system studied; used to show why flat autoregressive LLMs struggle with long-range coherence.
- Potts modelcitesOne of three model systems studied to analyze free-energy scaling and domain-wall formation in self-organizing systems.
- Windowed HamiltonianimplementsCore technical concept: a Hamiltonian where spin-spin interactions are defined only within finite windows ω, enabling generic analysis across diverse lattices
