arXiv:2310. 09149v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We study the approximation of probability measures in the Wasserstein-$p$ distance by structured classes of approximators, motivated by applications in imaging, machine learning, and physical measurement under sensor constraints.

arXiv:2609. 27008v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study the long-time behavior of Wasserstein gradient flows for interaction energies \[ \mathsf E[\mu] = \frac12\iint_{M\times M}K(x,y)\,\mathrm d\mu(x)\,\mathrm d\mu(y) \] on a closed manifold $M$.

arXiv:2606. 07325v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study the minimax rate of estimating a future value $\mu_{t_n+h}$ of a curve $t\mapsto\mu_t$ in the $2$-Wasserstein space $\mathcal{P}_2(\mathbb{R}^d)$ from finitely many noisy snapshots of its past, under an adiabatic bound $\|\nabla_t^k v\|\le\varepsilon$ on the $k$-th covariant derivative of the velocity field.

arXiv:2609. 03129v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Several classical machine-learning methods, such as KRRs and SVRs, are both computationally and analytically tractable since their estimators either admit closed-form expressions or are obtained by minimizing convex training objectives; neither feature is generally available for deep neural networks.

arXiv:2607. 10751v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Following Alon, Hanneke, Holzman, and Moran (FOCS 2021), we define a partial concept class (PCC) as a family of partial functions \(f: V\to\{0,1,\ast\}\); equivalently, its concepts partition the ground set into black ($f^{-1}(1)$), grey ($f^{-1}(\ast)$), and white parts ($f^{-1}(0)$).

arXiv:2610. 34651v2 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We provide sharp estimates on the number of vertices needed to approximate the Euclidean unit ball $B_d\subset\mathbb R^d$ with relative symmetric-difference volume error at most $\varepsilon\in(0,1)$.

arXiv:2610. 02663v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Despite the remarkable empirical success of flow-matching models, their statistical generalization guarantees remain underdeveloped.
