  1. Formal Language Recognition by Hard Attention Transformers: Perspectives from Circuit Complexity (2022 · 62 citations)
    This theoretical paper asks which formal languages Transformer encoders can accept when self-attention is idealized as hard attention, where each head looks only at the highest-scoring position or positions.
  2. Simulating Hard Attention Using Soft Attention (2026 · 4 citations)
    Theoretical analyses of transformers often assume hard attention, which puts all weight on the top-scoring position (unique-hard, UHAT) or spreads it evenly over all tied top positions (average-hard, AHAT).
