The paper introduces Policy Gradient Penalty (PGP), a single‑loop policy‑space method that enforces convex occupancy‑measure constraints via quadratic‑penalty regularization. PGP constructs pseudo‑rewards to estimate gradients of the penalized objective and uses the classical Policy Gradient Theorem, establishing smoothness and global last‑iterate convergence guarantees for an ε‑optimal constrained entropy value with ε‑bounded constraint violation. The authors validate PGP with ablations on a grid‑world benchmark and demonstrate scalability on two challenging continuous‑control tasks.

arXiv:2607. 07206v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Adaptive optimizers mix several mechanisms: a metric or preconditioner maps gradients to descent directions, while estimation, memory, step-size control, constraints, stochasticity, target modification, and discretization determine which directions are available and how they are used.

arXiv:2607. 06723v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Most gradient-based optimization methods move parameters through a fixed background geometry, even when their internal states implicitly define changing notions of length, curvature, and preconditioning.
