Power-law LLM scaling laws are largely the aggregate of stepwise token learning events whose heavy-tailed learning-time spectrum reconstructs loss derivatives along step, data, and model axes.

Critical percolation clusters embedded in high dimensions, combined with taxonomic latent variables, form an analytically tractable synthetic data model whose ground-truth hierarchy can be linearly decoded from network activations.
A new scaling law L(N, D, T) = E + (L0 - E) h/(1+h) with h = a/N^α + b/T^β + c N^γ/D^δ that decomposes loss into undercapacity, undertraining, and overfitting terms and saturates between E and L0.
Strong superposition causes neural loss to scale as the inverse of model dimension due to geometric feature overlaps, explaining scaling laws for broad frequency distributions.
