Weight decay controls distinct learning regimes in grokking transformers on modular arithmetic, tracked by new cheap attention-based diagnostics with empirical critical value and exponent fits.
Grokking emerges near the model size where memorization timescale T_mem(P) intersects generalization timescale T_gen(P) on modular arithmetic.
