-Mamba-2 SSD (State Space Duality) — Linear-time attention replacement.
+Mamba-2 SSD — Pure PyTorch, autograd-safe, fully parallel.
 
-From: "Transformers are SSMs: Generalized Models and Efficient Algorithms
-Through Structured State Space Duality" (Dao & Gu, 2024)
+IMPORTANT DESIGN DECISIONS:
+1. NO in-place operations (breaks autograd)
+2. Uses chunk-based scan instead of Blelloch (simpler, still parallel within chunks)
+3. Correct dimension handling for dt, B, C projections
+4. Works on CPU and GPU without custom kernels
 
-Key insight: SSMs and linear attention are the SAME computation.
-Mamba-2's SSD can be computed in two modes:
-  1. Linear recurrence mode (like Mamba-1): O(N) time, O(N) memory
-  2. Matrix multiply mode (like attention): O(N²) for short sequences
-  
-The scalar-A formulation enables chunk-scan parallelism: split sequence
-into chunks, compute SSM within each chunk via matmul, then combine
-with parallel associative scan across chunks.
+The SSM recurrence:
+    h_t = exp(A * Δ_t) * h_{t-1} + Δ_t * B_t * x_t
+    y_t = C_t^T * h_t + D * x_t
 
-For our lightweight image generator, we implement the core SSD algorithm
-in pure PyTorch without needing the mamba-ssm CUDA kernels. This makes
-it portable to any device (CPU, GPU, mobile) and compatible with
-ONNX/CoreML export.
+We compute this via the "chunk scan" approach from Mamba-2:
+- Split sequence into chunks of size T
+- Within each chunk: compute via matrix multiply (O(T²) but T is small)
+- Across chunks: carry hidden state forward (O(L/T) steps)
 
-Reference implementation: tommyip/mamba2-minimal
-Reference paper: arXiv:2405.21060
+For L=256 (16×16 latent) with T=16: only 16 chunks, each parallelized.
