Same Architecture, Different Capacity: Optimizer-Induced Spectral Scaling Laws
Nandan Kumar Jha, Brandon Reagen
Scaling laws have made language-model performance predictable from model size, data, and compute, but they typically treat the optimizer as a fixed training detail. We show that th…

NerVE: Nonlinear Eigenspectrum Dynamics in LLM Feed-Forward Networks
Nandan Kumar Jha, Brandon Reagen
We introduce NerVE, a unified eigenspectral framework for understanding how feed-forward networks (FFNs) in large language models (LLMs) organize and regulate information flow in h…
