Read the equation
The velocity follows the negative gradient of a composite potential F − λV. Where F acts as a loss, descending that composite potential trades off loss reduction against value increase. The poster switches from F in this expression to L in its neighboring expression without separately defining F.

Terms & definitions
The recovered passage does not supply a separate symbol table. Read the source context for the notation used in this version; familiar letters may carry different meanings in other builds.
How it works
Read dX/dt as the quantity being defined or updated by this relation.
Uses a derivative or gradient to describe a rate of change or a direction of variation.
Use this version’s variable definitions and update order. The same symbol may be assigned a different meaning in another build.
Assumptions & limits
A smooth finite-dimensional flow decreases its own composite potential at rate minus the squared gradient norm. That does not establish separate monotonic improvement of F and V, convergence to a global optimum, or measured intelligence.
