arXiv:2607. 04113v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Diffusion and flow-matching samplers integrate a learned probability-flow ODE from a large noise scale down to a small terminal floor $\sigma_{\min}$, at which the score is stiff and the flow develops a boundary layer.

arXiv:2607. 07665v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Classifier-free guidance (CFG) is the standard way to strengthen class-conditioning in diffusion and flow-matching samplers, yet at large guidance it oversaturates and destabilizes, symptoms practitioners suppress with more steps or limited-interval schedules.

The paper proves that for discrete diffusion models using uniform or remasking forward processes, an adaptive sampler based on a leave‑one‑out denoiser can achieve sampling error proportional to the score‑estimation error plus a small tolerance. The required number of discretization steps scales with the dual total correlation of the target distribution, not directly with the ambient dimension. This result shows that sampling complexity is governed by the intrinsic dependence structure of the distribution, and the authors provide an information‑theoretic analysis linking discretization error to mutual information between coordinates.

Abstract: One implicit DDIM inversion step is the cheapest probe of whether a pretrained diffusion model encodes local manifold geometry. It is the stationarity...

Classifier-free guidance (CFG) is the standard way to strengthen class-conditioning in diffusion and flow-matching samplers, yet at large guidance it oversaturates and destabilizes, symptoms practitioners suppress with more steps or limited-interval schedules. We analyze CFG through an asymptotic-preserving, numerical-analysis lens.
