arXiv:2606. 18080v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Gradient descent in deep learning may operate at the edge of stability (EoS), a regime in which the largest eigenvalue of the loss Hessian hovers near the stability threshold $2/\eta$, where $\eta$ is the learning rate.

arXiv:2606. 15551v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The Edge of Stability (EoS) phenomenon, where gradient descent operates with sharpness exceeding the classical convergence threshold yet the loss decreases over long timescales, is ubiquitous in modern deep learning but remains poorly understood in realistic settings.
By Eric Gan
arXiv:2606. 30930v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern deep learning has been shown to operate at the edge of stability, routinely using learning rates far larger than those justified by classical optimization theory.

arXiv:2607. 03613v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study the implicit bias of noisy stochastic gradient descent in training wide two-layer ReLU networks for multivariate regression.

arXiv:2608. 04382v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Gradient descent has been of particular interest in modern machine learning beyond sole focus on 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.
