Audit review

Both the paper and the model solution prove universal approximation for nearly-periodic symplectic maps by factoring P_ε into a conjugated circle action and a near-identity symplectic residual, then invoking universal approximation for the symplectic diffeomorphism ψ and the near-identity ε-dependent symplectic map I_ε. The paper states the result (Theorem 3.2) and provides the needed factorization (Lemma 3.3) and architecture definitions, while the model gives a careful compact-set error control argument for stability under composition and inversion. The arguments align closely; the model fills in quantitative details the paper omits.

Referee report (LaTeX)

\textbf{Recommendation:} minor revisions

\textbf{Journal Tier:} strong field

\textbf{Justification:}

The core contribution—symplectic gyroceptrons for nearly-periodic maps—is well motivated and consistent with established structure-preserving approximation theory. The universal approximation theorem follows directly from the provided factorization and known symplectic NN expressivity. Numerical results are convincing. Minor expository improvements would make the argument more self-contained.
