Muon通过平滑更新谱来减少优化偏差，提升多方向活跃时的训练稳定性。

Muon replaces a matrix gradient $G=UΣV^\top$ by its polar factor $UV^\top$. This keeps the singular directions selected by the gradient, but makes the update spectrum flat. We study the optimization bias created by this operation. Under explicit alignment assumptions, we prove that the polar update is the one-step entropy-maximizing choice among bounded updates that use the gradient singular directions and do not adapt to the current weight spectrum. In an underdetermined regression model, we derive exact singular-value dynamics for continuous-time Muon and identify a measurement-dependent condition under which the normalized spectrum moves toward equal nonzero singular values. This geometry also rules out a common low-rank interpretation: at fixed Frobenius norm, Muon's distinguished state has a flat spectrum, whereas nuclear-norm minimization favors spectral concentration. Controlled matrix-sensing experiments separate the effect from simple gradient rescaling, show that norm-matched gradient descent does not reproduce Muon, and recover the predicted flattening trend across broad ablations. In small NanoGPT pretraining, Muon preserves stable rank, has a broad learning-rate plateau, and improves validation loss relative to AdamW; in a matched small-ViT control, the ranking reverses. The resulting picture is regime-dependent: Muon is not universally superior, but its flat-spectrum bias can help when many spectral directions need to remain active.
