arXiv:2606.16068v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We establish sufficient conditions for robust positive invariance under state- and input-dependent disturbances with anisotropic covariance structure. The proposed ansatz maps a fixed ellipsoidal template through a GP-derived positive-definite matrix field, subsuming scalar homothetic scaling while retaining finite graph-based verification. The resulting LMI conditions couple the learned field to Schur-stable dynamics; an isotropic fallback with inflation factor $r=1/(1-\gamma_{\mathrm{cl}})$ proves admissibility. During each learning epoch the field is frozen, so online tube evaluation is one GP covariance query and a small matrix square root, with no online set iteration or LMI solve. Quadrotor simulations show a $195\times$ reduction in 3D velocity-tube volume and a $2.1{\times}10^5$ reduction in the joint 7D velocity-control subspace relative to a non-adaptive homothetic baseline. This extended version adds full proofs, a separated offline/online complexity analysis, and controller-sweep, contraction, and projection-area studies.
