When Parameter Gradient Flows Close in Representation Space
The represented gradient flow of a parameterized model depends on a mobility that can retain hidden parameter information.

Key points
- We study when one entire represented mobility map works for every autonomous loss from one fixed initialization.
- For two-factor matrix representations wider than both output dimensions, with individually full-row-rank factors, we classify all admissible joint ranks: closure occurs precisely at effective scalar-balanced minimal joint rank or a two-value signed spectral family at full joint rank.
- For general representations with constant ambient representation and gradient-Lie ranks, ordinary closure is equivalent to a local invariant-level metric in the analytic case and specified smooth regimes.
- We also separate testing families: linear losses locally admit closure at every submersion, whereas one fixed translated strongly convex quadratic family fails it on a delayed-bracket example.
