arXiv:2607. 19167v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Motivated by the numerical computation of the Mean Escape Time (MET) $\tau:\Omega\to\mathbb{R}$ of a stochastic process from a bounded domain $\Omega\subseteq\mathbb{R}^d$, we study elliptic Dirichlet boundary value problems (BVPs) using boundary-enforced Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs), in which the Dirichlet condition is imposed exactly by multiplying the network output with a predefined distance-to-boundary approximation $\rho$.

arXiv:2509. 08726v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: This paper focuses on the decentralized stochastic optimization problem $f(\mathbf{x})=\frac{1}{m}\sum_{i=1}^m f_i(\mathbf{x})$ over a connected network of $n$ agents, where each local function has the form of $f_i(\mathbf{x}) = {\mathbb E}\left[F(\mathbf{x};{\boldsymbol \xi}_i)\right]$ which satisfies the $(L_0,L_1)$-smooth condition but possibly nonconvex and each random variable ${\boldsymbol \xi}_i$ follows distribution ${\mathcal D}_i$.

We establish a $\widetildeΩ(d^{5/4}\sqrt T)$ lower bound on the minimax expected regret of stochastic bandit convex optimization of $1$-Lipschitz functions on the Euclidean ball. This presents the first nontrivial regret lower bound that grows faster than $d\sqrt{T}$ for this problem, establishing that stochastic bandit convex optimization is fundamentally harder than linear bandits.
arXiv:2607. 16384v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: For stochastic gradient descent (SGD) with a constant stepsize $\alpha$, the invariant law of the iterates, centered at a minimizer, describes the behavior of the algorithm over long time horizons.
