We study model embeddability, which is a variation of the famous embedding problem in probability theory, when apart from the requirement that the Markov matrix is the matrix exponential of a rate matrix, we additionally ask that the rate…
We explore a class of centrosymmetric matrices whose entries are polynomials in two variables, referred to as DNA matrices. Our motivation stems from an unexpected connection between these matrices and invariant polynomials under the action…

In this note, we characterize the embeddability of generic Kimura 3ST Markov matrices in terms of their eigenvalues. As a consequence, we are able to compute the volume of such matrices relative to the volume of all Markov matrices within…
We investigate how embedding dimension affects the emergence of an internal "world model" in a transformer trained with reinforcement learning to perform bubble-sort-style adjacent swaps. Models achieve high accuracy even with very small…

Deciding whether a Markov matrix is embeddable (i.e. can be written as the exponential of a rate matrix) is an open problem even for $4\times 4$ matrices. We study the embedding problem and rate identifiability for the K80 model of…
It is well known that every closure system can be represented by an implicational base, or by the set of its meet-irreducible elements. In Horn logic, these are respectively known as the Horn expressions and the characteristic models. In…
This work introduces a new class of symmetric matrix structures, called harmonic structures, which enable the generation of all possible directed transitions $(x_i, x_{i+1})$ over a set of $n$ symbols, without internal repetitions. Unlike…
In statistical relational learning, the link prediction problem is key to automatically understand the structure of large knowledge bases. As in previous studies, we propose to solve this problem through latent factorization. However, here…

Characterizing whether a Markov process of discrete random variables has an homogeneous continuous-time realization is a hard problem. In practice, this problem reduces to deciding when a given Markov matrix can be written as the…
