Lorentz-Equivariance without Limitations

Abstract

Lorentz Local Canonicalization (LLoCa) ensures exact Lorentz-equivariance for arbitrary neural networks with minimal computational overhead. For the LHC, it equivariantly predicts local reference frames for each particle and propagates any-order tensorial information between them. We apply it to graph networks and transformers. We showcase its cutting-edge performance on amplitude regression, end-to-end event generation, and jet tagging. For jet tagging, we introduce a large top tagging dataset to benchmark LLoCa versions of a range of established benchmark architectures and highlight the importance of symmetry breaking.
