arXiv:2608. 03368v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: For $n$ unit vectors $x_1,\ldots,x_n \in \mathbb{R}^d$, we study the continuous ReLU derivative Gram matrix $H$, whose entries are obtained by averaging pairwise gated inner products over a standard Gaussian direction.

Projected Riemannian Gradient Descent for the Bures-Wasserstein Barycenter: Dimension-Independent Linear Convergence at Unit Step Size

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.
