arXiv:2004. 05813v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Suppose that we are given independent, identically distributed random samples $x_1,\cdots,x_n$ from a mixture at most $k$ many $d$-dimensional spherical Gaussian distributions $\mu_1,\cdots,\mu_{k_0}$ of identical and known variance $\sigma^2$ in each coordinate, such that the minimum $\ell^2$ distance between two distinct centers $y_l$ and $y_j$ is greater than $2\Delta\sigma \min\{\sqrt{d},\sqrt k\}$, where $\Delta>C_0$, and $C_0$ is a sufficiently large universal constant.

We study the sample complexity of list replicable algorithms for estimating the biases of $d$ coins. An algorithm is $(k,\varepsilon,δ)$-list replicable if for every bias vector $\mathbf{p}\in[0,1]^d$...
arXiv:2610. 12358v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study Gaussian regression under squared population $L_2$ loss in a known $m$-dimensional subspace of degree-at-most-$k$ functions on the $d$-dimensional Boolean cube.

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.

arXiv:2610. 37272v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study the computational limits of clustering $n$ observations drawn from a mixture of $K$ isotropic distributions in $\mathbb R^d$, in the regime where the number $K$ of groups is much larger than the dimension $d$.
