arXiv:2602. 16966v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Scalable methods for networked multi-agent reinforcement learning let each agent plan using only a small neighborhood of the agent graph.
arXiv:2607. 18554v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We develop the Continuous Distributed Coupled Policy Gradient (CDCPG) algorithm for cooperative reinforcement learning in networked Markov decision processes with continuous state and action spaces.
arXiv:2608. 07922v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Adaptive learning needs both a state that preserves what observations imply and opportunities to act on that state.
arXiv:2608. 12753v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study decentralized multi-player reinforcement learning in episodic tabular Markov decision processes (MDPs) under three forms of information asymmetry: (A) unobserved actions with common rewards, (B) observed actions with independent rewards, and (C) unobserved actions with independent rewards.
arXiv:2609.06467v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In performative reinforcement learning the deployed policy shapes the environment that generates the learner's future data, and the natural solution co...
arXiv:2602. 09474v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study reinforcement learning in MDPs whose transition function is stochastic at most steps but may behave adversarially at a fixed subset of $\Lambda$ steps per episode.
arXiv:2608. 07301v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study what can be recovered about the transition probabilities of a Markov decision process from optimal actions alone.
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.
arXiv:2606. 16515v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman theory implies that the optimal goal-conditioned action depends on the goal only through the gradient of the goal-reaching distance at the current state, yet standard online GCRL still conditions the actor on the raw goal -- a signal that is geometrically uninformative when the goal is far from the data distribution.
arXiv:2606. 25170v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study PAC learning in tabular discounted Markov decision processes with exogenous i.
arXiv:2608.28150v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: How much matrix rank is required to preserve every bounded value output of normalized softmax attention? We study the unrestricted maximum-row-\(\e...
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 $\mathcal{A}_H$.
arXiv:2609.38880v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study the last iterate of standard tabular temporal-difference (TD) learning from a single trajectory of a finite Markov reward process. For discoun...
