Robust Detection of Planted Subgraphs in Semi-Random Models

arXiv:2508. 02158v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Detection of planted subgraphs in Erd\"os-R\'enyi random graphs has been extensively studied, leading to a rich body of results characterizing both statistical and computational thresholds.

Parameterised graph theory for tensor networks: entanglement rerouting, structural simplification, and agnostic tomography

The paper applies parameterised graph theory to tensor networks, showing that cutwidth and tree‑cutwidth bound the bond‑dimension overhead needed to represent a tensor‑network state as a matrix product state or tree tensor network. It derives graph‑dependent upper bounds on the sample and computational complexity of tensor‑network tomography, introducing a new graph parameter called learning complexity. Finally, it extends the framework to an agnostic learner that approximates any state with a tensor‑network state of given bond dimension, providing explicit graph‑dependent complexity bounds.

Stability-Constrained Approximation in Spline KANs: Exact Layer Balancing and Budget-Compatible Saturation

The paper investigates how to balance approximation accuracy and stability in deep spline superposition networks under a strict layerwise Lipschitz budget. It provides an exact solution to the finite‑depth diagonal balancing problem, shows how to construct spline discretisations that respect the budget, and establishes minimax lower bounds for operators constrained in both first and third derivative norms. The authors also demonstrate that layer errors can accumulate linearly with depth, indicating that the upper bound is not merely a theoretical artifact.
