Abstract
This study investigates how the ordered layer-state trajectory of transformers influences inference processes, revealing measurable computations tied to layer order.
Reality Card
Core Claim
Layer order significantly affects the alignment of layer-state trajectories with endpoint outcomes, indicating a structured internal dynamic in transformer inference.
Method / Result
Paths were 1.60–2.24 times more aligned with their endpoint chord compared to endpoint-preserving shuffles.
Limitations
The study does not establish a complete theory of LLM dynamics or control over answer correctness.
