arXiv:2603. 09923v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Exponential moving averages (EMAs) are a central component of widely used adaptive optimizers such as Adam.

arXiv:2607. 27383v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We establish the first convergence guarantees for the plain vector-form \emph{Adam} optimizer under heavy-tailed stochastic noise.

arXiv:2406. 14340v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The standard stochastic gradient descent (SGD) optimization method, as well as adaptive methods such as the Adam optimizer fail to converge if the learning rates do not converge to zero (particularly, in the situation of constant learning rates).

arXiv:2608. 04026v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In this paper, we develop a trust-region framework for understanding the behavior of adaptive moment estimation mechanisms, such as \textsc{Adam}, in stochastic gradient optimization.

arXiv:2605. 29547v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Deep learning optimization relies heavily on the assumption of smooth loss landscapes, a condition systematically violated by modern architectures due to non-smooth components such as ReLU activations and quantization operators.

arXiv:2608. 16760v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reliable optimization is central to neural network (NN) training, yet Adam, the default optimizer for modern LLMs, rests on a fragile foundation.
