The Birkhoff Geometry of Manifold-Constrained Hyper-Connections: Two Channels, Vertex Viscosity, and Sinkhorn as a Retraction
Hyper-connections widen the residual stream of a Transformer to $n$ parallel streams. Their manifold-constrained version (mHC) mixes the streams at each layer with a doubly stochastic matrix, which it computes by Sinkhorn normalization of exponentiated logits. We give a geometric theory of this design on the Birkhoff p …
