arXiv:2607. 20316v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study decentralized online optimization for strongly geodesically convex (strongly g-convex) losses on Riemannian manifolds with bounded sectional curvature, including positively curved manifolds.
arXiv:2606. 02948v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Curvature adaptivity is a classical theme in online optimization: for convex Lipschitz losses, adaptive methods interpolate between the optimal $O(\sqrt{T})$ regret for general convex losses and $O(\log T)$ regret under strong convexity.
arXiv:2608. 02375v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This paper studies the distributed online control problem over a network of linear time-invariant (LTI) systems in the presence of adversarial disturbances and time-varying convex costs.
The paper introduces a new convergence framework for solving distributionally robust optimization problems formulated as nonconvex, nonconcave minimax problems over a Euclidean space and a Riemannian manifold. It defines a "basin saddle point"—a locally defined Nash equilibrium—and proves that a Riemannian gradient ascent–descent algorithm converges to such points under a local Łojasiewicz growth condition. The authors apply this theory to a statistical risk DRO problem over Gaussian measures, deriving explicit convergence rates and constants in terms of data dimension, loss moments, and reference covariance.
The paper investigates how the choice of geometry in online mirror descent affects performance, particularly when loss gradients are sparse. It introduces randomized block‑norm mirror maps that interpolate between Euclidean and entropic geometries, achieving polynomial‑in‑dimension regret improvements over standard methods for various convex sets. The authors also demonstrate that naive alternation between mirror maps can lead to linear regret and propose a Hedge‑based meta‑algorithm that competes with the best mirror map in a finite portfolio, achieving near‑optimal regret for random block geometries.
