arXiv:2607. 21005v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Most explanations of training instability focus on \emph{learning-rate criticality}, typically characterized by the Edge of Stability, beyond which optimization becomes unstable.

arXiv:2506. 13139v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Modern Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) often operate on high-dimensional data and rely on overparameterized models, where classical low-dimensional intuitions break down.

arXiv:2605. 31244v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Neural scaling laws describe predictable power-law relationships between model size, dataset size, compute, and performance.

arXiv:2505. 22578v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The optimization of neural networks under weight decay remains poorly understood from a theoretical standpoint.

arXiv:2607. 07884v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In this short note we consider the gradient descent dynamics of deep scalar linear networks, $f(x) = \prod_{l=1}^L w_l x$, which enjoy exact time-course solutions for any integer depth.
