arXiv:2608.20428v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study the stability of minimal representations of controlled stochastic processes (in particular, transducers) under perturbations. This question is motivated by recent experiments finding predictive-state structure in the latent representations of neural networks. We consider standard, linear and predictive transducers. We introduce notions of approximate homomorphism capturing local structural similarity between them, together with metrics comparing their induced dynamics (which we refer to as interfaces), and prove properties such as composability of the approximate homomorphisms. For standard transducers, we show that there exist simple interfaces for which there is no approximate homomorphism between the different implementations of the dynamics. In contrast, for every finite-rank interface $\mathcal I$, we prove that all minimal linear transducers implementing interfaces sufficiently close to $\mathcal I$ have an approximate homomorphism to the minimal implementation of $\mathcal I$, with error linear in the perturbation size. We prove an analogous stability result for predictive transducers under a residual metric using some mild hypothesis regarding the indistinguishability of the belief states. These results identify conditions under which canonical transducer representations are robust to perturbations, while showing that such convergence fails without additional structural restrictions. Under the assumption that these type of abstractions are embedded into the hidden layers of modern AI models, this gives …
