Diffusion and flow-matching samplers integrate a learned probability-flow ODE from a large noise scale down to a small terminal floor $σ_{\min}$, at which the score is stiff and the flow develops a boundary layer. We treat $σ_{\min}$ as a singular-perturbation parameter and determine which fixed-step samplers are asymptotic-preserving (AP), that is, stable and uniformly accurate as $σ_{\min}\to0$, casting the criteria as an a posteriori audit: residual functionals with $σ_{\min}$-uniform coefficients, computable on a pretrained checkpoint without ground-truth scores or exact trajectories.

arXiv:2606. 21253v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Continual learning that is gradient-free, local, online, and append-only is attractive for edge and streaming deployment, but its value is usually argued informally.
arXiv:2606. 01122v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We propose a five-step diagnostic protocol for residual-trained neural HJB-PIDE solvers with control-dependent L\'evy jumps, targeting a general failure mode of neural PDE methods: a learned solution can match headline scalar diagnostics while miscomputing an operator inside its training loss.
arXiv:2607. 07538v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Training a model with noisy gradient descent can be idealized as overdamped Langevin dynamics on the loss landscape, and a natural safety question is to bound the probability $\nu_t(\mathcal{A}_H) = \mathbb{P}(Q_t \in \mathcal{A}_H)$ that the trajectory lies in a designated failure region $\mathcal{A}_H$.
While entropy regularization is widely used to stabilize and accelerate Natural Policy Gradient methods, its ability to yield faster convergence rates for the unregularized objective remains underexplored. Existing analyses often rely on double-loop architectures and invoke a linear entropy penalty.
The paper introduces computable error bounds and a certified early‑stopping criterion for regularized inverse problems by exploiting an exact Fenchel–Young duality‑gap identity. The total duality gap splits into a data‑fidelity loss and a regularizer loss, both expressed as Fenchel–Young losses that are oracle‑free and vanish exactly at Mirror Alignment. Using a constructive Brønsted–Rockafellar approach, the authors build a dual‑feasible proxy via a proximal step in the fidelity geometry, enabling an early‑stopping rule based on the regularizer loss.
