1-Lipschitz Neural Networks on Hadamard Manifolds
Controlling the Lipschitz constant of a neural network is a standard way to promote robustness and stability. Most existing constraining strategies are designed for Euclidean spaces. In this work, we construct and analyze a class of 1-Lipschitz neural networks on Hadamard manifolds. Our layers are of gradient-descent type, $1$-Lipschitz, and quasi-$α$-firmly nonexpansive. The core building blocks of the proposed architecture are Busemann functions, and we exploit the properties of Busemann gradient flows to design $1$-Lipschitz geometry-preserving layers. We provide explicit constructions and
Learning Forced Multibody Dynamics on Lie Groups
We propose an architecture for learning the dynamics of mechanical systems based on discrete forced Euler-Lagrange equations on Lie groups using only position data. By formulating the dynamics directly on manifold-valued configuration spaces, the method naturally respects the geometric structure of the systems and preserves geometric invariants and conservation laws. The reliance on position measurements alone makes the framework applicable in settings where velocity data are unavailable or noisy. The approach extends naturally to multibody systems, accommodates external control inputs, and de
