Geometric Meta-Learning via Coupled Ricci Flow: Unifying Knowledge Representation and Quantum Entanglement

Ming Lei, Christophe Baehr

TL;DR

This work introduces a unified geometric-thermodynamic framework for neural networks by coupling parameter-space geometry to loss landscapes through a thermodynamically guided Ricci flow, enabling adaptive geometry and isometric knowledge embedding. It advances three pillars: (i) a coupled Ricci flow that preserves geometric structure while integrating loss gradients, (ii) geometric surgery for automatic topology control via curvature-driven modifications, and (iii) an AdS/CFT-inspired holographic duality that bounds entanglement and links neural dynamics to holographic physics. The framework yields concrete guarantees and practical gains: a convergence speedup of approximately 2.1×, a 63% reduction in Betti numbers indicating topological simplification, and an $O(N \log N)$ computational complexity compared to $O(N^2)$ baselines, with entanglement ratios remaining bounded by holographic limits. These results suggest a physically grounded, scalable approach to geometric deep learning with robust regularization and topological adaptability, opening avenues in quantum-classical learning, topological optimization, and physics-informed AI.

Abstract

This paper establishes a unified framework integrating geometric flows with deep learning through three fundamental innovations. First, we propose a thermodynamically coupled Ricci flow that dynamically adapts parameter space geometry to loss landscape topology, formally proved to preserve isometric knowledge embedding (Theorem~\ref{thm:isometric}). Second, we derive explicit phase transition thresholds and critical learning rates (Theorem~\ref{thm:critical}) through curvature blowup analysis, enabling automated singularity resolution via geometric surgery (Lemma~\ref{lem:surgery}). Third, we establish an AdS/CFT-type holographic duality (Theorem~\ref{thm:ads}) between neural networks and conformal field theories, providing entanglement entropy bounds for regularization design. Experiments demonstrate 2.1$\times$ convergence acceleration and 63\% topological simplification while maintaining $\mathcal{O}(N\log N)$ complexity, outperforming Riemannian baselines by 15.2\% in few-shot accuracy. Theoretically, we prove exponential stability (Theorem~\ref{thm:converge}) through a new Lyapunov function combining Perelman entropy with Wasserstein gradient flows, fundamentally advancing geometric deep learning.
