arXiv:2609. 02155v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The Johnson-Lindenstrauss (JL) lemma guarantees that a random projection of $n$ points to $m=O(\varepsilon^{-2}\log n)$ dimensions preserves pairwise squared distances within relative error $\varepsilon$ with high probability, and this dimension order is asymptotically optimal.

The paper investigates how well two-stage structured Hadamard rotations approximate uniform random rotations in high-dimensional spaces. It establishes nonasymptotic upper bounds of order √{log d/d} for one-dimensional marginals, while showing a persistent Wasserstein-1 discrepancy for the full vector that does not vanish as dimension grows. These results highlight a separation between marginal and joint approximation quality, though they do not directly translate into algorithmic performance guarantees.
Randomized sketch-and-solve algorithms accelerate overconstrained $\ell_2$ regression by replacing the input with a smaller problem. Standard subspace embeddings guarantee that the cost of the regress...

arXiv:2606. 11255v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Bernstein--Schur kernels are products of a finite-feature kernel (one with an explicit finite-dimensional feature map) and a completely monotone shift-invariant kernel: nonstationary kernels that fall between the shift-invariant and dot-product templates random features usually exploit, so in general neither Bochner sampling nor polynomial sketching applies to the full kernel directly.
The paper investigates restricted eigenvalue (RE) bounds for norm‑regularized estimators under heavy‑tailed designs. It shows that the previously conjectured sample‑size law based on Gaussian width fails for heavy‑tailed measurements, due to a phenomenon called simultaneous threshold occupancy. The authors provide explicit counterexamples, derive worst‑case sample‑complexity bounds, and compare the behavior of heavy‑tailed versus Gaussian designs on constant‑width polyhedral descent cones.
Methods operating on Vision Transformer (ViT) feature spaces typically rely on Euclidean distance or cosine similarity. This assumes that every direction is equally meaningful, but there is no reason...
