On the SoS Certifiability of Log-Concave Distributions

arXiv:2609. 30105v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: For an arbitrary isotropic log-concave distribution $P$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$, we prove that the polynomial $(Cm)^m\|v\|_2^m - \mathbb{E}_{X\sim P}\langle X,v\rangle^m$ is a sum of squares for every even $m\ge2$, where $C>0$ is a universal constant.

On the SoS Certifiability of Log-Concave Distributions

For an arbitrary isotropic log-concave distribution $P$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$, we prove that the polynomial $(Cm)^m\|v\|_2^m - \mathbb{E}_{X\sim P}\langle X,v\rangle^m$ is a sum of squares for every even $m\ge2$, where $C>0$ is a universal constant. This removes the dependence on the Poincaré constant in the theorem of Kothari and Steinhardt (arXiv:1711.

Simultaneous Pointwise Majorization for Mixed Tail Processes with Applications in Gaussian Chaos and Ergodic Diffusions

The paper introduces a new simultaneous pointwise majorization framework for Banach‑valued stochastic processes that possess finite‑metric mixed‑tail increments. By assuming an anchored process satisfies a tail bound involving multiple pseudo‑metrics and orders, the authors derive a high‑probability envelope that holds uniformly over the index set, with terms expressed through integrals of log‑covering numbers and distance functions. This result generalizes single‑metric sub‑Weibull bounds and, in the Gaussian case, improves existing pointwise upper bounds by removing extraneous logarithmic factors.

The Sharp Tail of Uniform Stability

Uniform stability controls how much one training example can change the loss at any test point. A new logarithmic-free upper bound shows that a $γ$-uniformly stable algorithm with loss in $[0,L]$ has...

Poisson-Corrector Complexity Bounds for Moreau--Yosida Unadjusted Langevin Sampling

arXiv:2609. 12594v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study the classical Moreau--Yosida unadjusted Langevin algorithm (MYULA) for $\pi(\,\mathrm{d} x)\propto e^{-f(x)-g(x)}\,\mathrm{d} x$, where $f\in C^2(\mathbb{R}^d)$ is $m$-strongly convex with $L_f$-Lipschitz gradient and $g:\mathbb{R}^d\to\mathbb{R}$ is convex and globally $G$-Lipschitz.
