…rsUnwrapped base class Consolidate duplicated eigendecomposition logic from EigendecomposedShampooKroneckerFactorsUnwrapped and EigenvalueCorrectedShampooKroneckerFactorsUnwrapped into a shared base class. The base class provides _perform_eigendecomposition and _amortized_computation, with subclass behavior controlled via hasattr checks on field presence.

…or_outer_product hook Inline the outer product loop into BaseShampooPreconditionerList._update_factor_matrices and introduce _transform_grad_for_outer_product as the single extension point. The base returns grad unchanged; KL-Shampoo subclasses override it to precondition the gradient. This eliminates _compute_outer_product_list from all three classes that defined it.

Introduce PerFactorEigenvalueCorrectedShampoo, which stores m+n eigenvalues per block (one per factor dimension) computed directly as diag(Q^T M Q), where Q are cached eigenvectors and M is the already-accumulated factor matrix. This is more memory-efficient than EShampoo/SOAP's m*n eigenvalues while still providing eigenvalue correction. New classes: - PerFactorEigenvalueCorrectedShampooKroneckerFactorsUnwrapped - PerFactorEigenvalueCorrectedShampooPreconditionerList - PerFactorEigenvalueCorrectedKLShampooPreconditionerList (KL variant) - PerFactorEigenvalueCorrectedShampooPreconditionerConfig - PerFactorEigenvalueCorrectedKLShampooPreconditionerConfig Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Test the combined PerFactor+KL variant which recomputes eigenvalues every step and preconditions gradients before outer products. Uses beta2=0 and epsilon=1.0 to get clean expected values, leveraging the perturb_before_computation happy path where KL is effectively a no-op when eigenvalues are equal.

…tion
Instead of recomputing eigenvalues as diag(Q^T M Q) every step (which causes
discontinuities when eigenvectors Q change at amortized computation steps),
maintain a direct EMA: E_t = beta2 * E_{t-1} + w * diag(Q^T O_t Q).
Key changes:
- Add _get_eigenvalue_allocator hook for zero-init eigenvalues (EMA from zero)
- Add _post_outer_product_hook for eigenvalue EMA update using outer products
- Replace hasattr dispatch with _include_eigenvalues_in_amortized_computation
ClassVar (addresses existing TODO), set False on PerFactor instances to
prevent amortized computation from overwriting EMA'd eigenvalues
- Add _prepare_eigenvalues_for_preconditioning hook for bias correction
- Add zero-eigenvalue guard in KL variant to skip preconditioning at init
