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.
arXiv:2607. 07204v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Structured preconditioners restrict optimization to a small family of positive metrics, but endpoint condition-number reachability does not measure the geometric effort required to reach a useful metric.

The paper introduces a Projected Riemannian Gradient Descent (RGD) algorithm for computing the Bures‑Wasserstein barycenter of positive definite matrices, achieving dimension‑independent linear convergence at unit step size. It resolves a previous dichotomy by showing that clipping eigenvalues to a fixed interval yields a closed‑form, non‑expansive projection in the BW metric, allowing the algorithm to match the empirical speed of unit‑step RGD while maintaining theoretical guarantees. The method also extends to the invariant matrix projection problem, providing a unified dimension‑independent analysis.
