arXiv:2606. 01342v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Learning-augmented paging has been extensively studied in recent years.
The paper introduces a learning‑augmented algorithm for online allocation that handles unreliable predictions. It addresses finite candidate sets, irreversible decisions, and exposure constraints by combining advice with a conservative fallback and a fairness correction. The authors prove consistency and robustness under bounded‑error assumptions and demonstrate experimentally that the method remains stable against adversarial advice while substantially reducing exposure disparity.
Learning-augmented algorithms combine fallible predictions with formal performance guarantees. This survey reviews prediction interfaces, error measures, consistency–robustness trade-offs, and five construction mechanisms across online optimization, caching, learned data structures, graph problems, and mechanism design. It distinguishes theorem-level upper bounds from matched asymptotic dependence, separates formal guarantees from empirical evidence, and outlines open problems in cost-aware prediction, endogenous error, semantic predictors, and benchmarking.
arXiv:2605. 09382v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The Linear Assignment Problem is a fundamental combinatorial optimization task where classical exact solvers ensure optimality but suffer from an $\mathcal{O}(N^{3})$ bottleneck, while recent neural approximations struggle with scalability and exactness.

arXiv:2606. 29252v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study repeated bidding in multi-unit discriminatory (pay-as-bid) auctions for a single bidder with per-round utility equal to value minus $\alpha$ times payment, where $\alpha\in[0,1]$ is a cost-of-capital parameter.
The paper introduces FedSWE, a federated learning algorithm designed to handle non‑stationary and heterogeneous client availability without requiring prior real‑time knowledge of which devices are online. FedSWE compensates for missed computations, stabilizes global updates, and mixes local updates through implicit gossiping, all while adding only modest memory and computational overhead. The authors prove that FedSWE converges to a stationary point for non‑convex objectives and achieves linear speedup in certain scenarios, and they validate these claims with experiments on real‑world datasets featuring diverse client unavailability patterns.
