Quotient Dynamics, Effective Curvature, and Implicit Bias in Positive Quadratic Networks
Positive quadratic networks admit the low-rank representation f_U(x)=x^top UU^top x, where Uinmathbb{R}^{dtimes r} is identifiable only up to right orthogonal multiplication, representing a rank-r PSD matrix Q=UU^top. We study how this quotient structure governs training dynamics, curvature, recovery, and interpolation bias. On the full-column-rank stratum, we identify mathbb{R}^{dtimes r}_*/O(r) with the rank-r PSD manifold. For smooth objectives L(U)=ell(UU^top), the Euclidean factor gradient
