arXiv:2611.08303v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study token dynamics in deep Mamba models, with a particular focus on the attracting role of the first token. Unlike attention mechanisms, where token interactions are governed by positive scalar coefficients, Mamba dynamics involve full matrix-valued interaction coefficients with no positivity or definiteness guarantees. This structural difference makes Mamba dynamics substantially harder to analyze and prevents the direct application of existing techniques for attention-based models. To overcome this challenge, we introduce a new analytical
