A Residual-Shell-Based Lower Bound for Ollivier-Ricci Curvature

arXiv:2604. 12211v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Ollivier-Ricci curvature (ORC), defined via the Wasserstein distance that captures rich geometric information, has received growing attention in both theory and applications.

Local-Global Geometric Insights for Graph Neural Networks via Entropic Curvature

arXiv:2607. 22381v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Curvature notions on graphs, particularly Ollivier-Ricci and Forman, have emerged as powerful tools for addressing fundamental issues in Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) such as oversmoothing and oversquashing, but rely almost exclusively on local edge-level comparisons and therefore fail to certify how information actually propagates over long distances.

A Riemannian Approach to Low-Rank Optimal Transport

arXiv:2606. 12120v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Low-rank optimal transport (OT) mitigates the quadratic scaling of classical solvers, yet existing approaches rely heavily on first-order mirror-descent updates that require careful hyperparameter tuning and ignore the optimization landscape's curvature.
