arXiv:2511. 13592v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The existing method of GS-PowerOpt solves the non-convex optimization problem of the form $\max_{\boldsymbol{x} \in \mathbb{R}^d} f(\boldsymbol{x})$ through maximizing a Gaussian-smoothed surrogate $F_{N,\sigma}(\boldsymbol{\mu}) = \mathbb{E}_{\boldsymbol{x}\sim\mathcal{N}(\boldsymbol{\mu},\sigma^2 I_d)}[e^{N f(\boldsymbol{x})}]$.

arXiv:2606. 15832v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Empirical risk minimization on massive datasets naturally exhibits a nested double finite-sum structure, where $N=nm$ total samples are logically or physically partitioned into $n$ blocks of size $m$ (e.

arXiv:2608. 12879v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Fractional partial differential equations describe nonlocal dynamics, but discovering them from noisy data is difficult because fractional differentiation amplifies high-frequency measurement noise and the derivative orders are unknown.
