We opt to use a quintic iteration whose coefficients are selected to maximize the slope at zero. For the purpose of minimizing steps, it turns out to be empirically effective to keep increasing the slope at zero even beyond the point where the iteration no longer converges all the way to one everywhere on the interval. This iteration therefore does not produce UV^T but rather something like US'V^T where S' is diagonal with S_{ii}' ~ Uniform(0.5, 1.5), which turns out not to hurt model performance at all relative to UV^T, where USV^T = G is the SVD.

Muon internally runs standard SGD-momentum, and then performs an orthogonalization post- processing step, in which each 2D parameter's update is replaced with the nearest orthogonal matrix. To efficiently orthogonalize each update, we use a Newton-Schulz iteration, which has the advantage that it can be stably run in bfloat16 on the GPU.
