Token Space: A Category Theory Framework for AI Computations
This paper introduces the Token Space framework, a novel mathematical construct designed to enhance the interpretability and effectiveness of deep learning models through the application of category theory. By establishing a categorical structure at the Token level, we provide a new lens through which AI computations can be understood, emphasizing the relationships between tokens, such as grouping, order, and parameter types. We explore the foundational methodologies of the Token Space, detailing its construction, the role of construction operators and initial categories, and its application in analyzing deep learning models, specifically focusing on attention mechanisms and Transformer architectures. The integration of category theory into AI research offers a unified framework to describe and analyze computational structures, enabling new research paths and development possibilities. Our investigation reveals that the Token Space framework not only facilitates a deeper theoretical understanding of deep learning models but also opens avenues for the design of more efficient, interpretable, and innovative models, illustrating the significant role of category theory in advancing computational models.

Streaming Attention Approximation via Discrepancy Theory
Large language models (LLMs) have achieved impressive success, but their high memory requirements present challenges for long-context token generation. In this paper we study the streaming complexity of attention approxi…
Differentiable Causal Computations via Delayed Trace
We investigate causal computations taking sequences of inputs to sequences of outputs where the $n$th output depends on the first $n$ inputs only. We model these in category theory via a construction taking a Cartesian c…

We propose the design of novel categorical generative AI architectures (GAIAs) using topos theory, a type of category that is ``set-like": a topos has all (co)limits, is Cartesian closed, and has a subobject classifier. …
