HySPE:基于辛双剪切的 positional encoding

arXiv:2610.10154v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We introduce Hyperbolic Symplectic Positional Encoding (HySPE), grounding positional attention in non-compact symplectic transformations. While canonical Rotary Position Embedding (RoPE) parameterizes the compact, elliptic branch of $\Sp(2,\R)$ via rotations, HySPE operationalizes its hyperbolic branch via a damped symmetric composition of dual shears, yielding a conformally symplectic contraction with two spectral decay rates per channel pair. To eliminate the exponential representation drift inherent to naive absolute factorizations, we diagonalize the operator in its invariant eigenbasis and introduce blockwise coordinate rebasing with adaptive centered execution. This guarantees length-independent numerical bounds while matching cached RoPE forward latency (7.21\,ms on an RTX 4090). On TinyShakespeare, HySPE-UltraLong maintains an invariant perplexity of 4.810 up to $16\times$ zero-shot extrapolation ($L=4096$), whereas RoPE degrades to 131.198. Scaled to a 51M-parameter subword Transformer on WikiText-103 ($L_{\text{train}}=512$), HySPE closely matches RoPE in-domain while robustly extrapolating to length 8192, reducing tail perplexity by 83.9\% over RoPE. While these controlled experiments establish HySPE's extrapolation robustness and numerical stability, evaluating its scaling behavior on large-scale foundation models remains an important direction for future investigation.
