A categorical formulation of Kraus' paradox
arXiv:2403.17961v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We give a categorical formulation of Kraus' "magic trick" for recovering information from truncated types. Rather than type theory, we work in Van den Berg-Moerdi…
Monoidal bicategories, differential linear logic, and analytic functors
arXiv:2405.05774v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We develop further the theory of monoidal bicategories by introducing and studying bicategorical counterparts of the notions of a linear exponential comonad, as c…
Gibbs state preparation for commuting Hamiltonian: Mapping to classical Gibbs sampling
arXiv:2410.04909v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Gibbs state preparation, or Gibbs sampling, is a key computational technique extensively used in physics, statistics, and other scientific fields. Recent efforts …
Distributionally Robust Optimization via Iterative Algorithms in Continuous Probability Spaces
arXiv:2412.20556v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We study distributionally robust optimization (DRO) for robust inference when the worst-case distribution is continuous, leading to significant computational chal…
A stochastic smoothing framework for nonconvex-nonconcave minEmax problems with applications to Wasserstein distributionally robust optimization
arXiv:2502.17602v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We study a class of stochastic nonsmooth optimization problems in which an outer variable minimizes the expectation of a pointwise maximum. This minimization--exp…
A system-level approach to generalized feedback Nash equilibrium seeking in partially observed games
arXiv:2503.24159v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: This work proposes an algorithm for seeking generalized feedback Nash equilibria (GFNE) in noncooperative dynamic games. The focus is on cyber-physical systems wi…
An Overview of Josephson Junctions Based QPUs
arXiv:2504.02500v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Quantum processing units (QPUs) built on superconducting Josephson junctions remain the most industrially mature route to fault-tolerant quantum computing, but th…
Limits of Discrete Energy of Families of Increasing Sets
arXiv:2504.11302v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The Hausdorff dimension of a set can be detected using the Riesz energy. Here, we consider situations where a sequence of points, $\{x_n\}$, ``fills in'' a set $E…
Markovian Continuity of the MMSE
arXiv:2504.14659v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Minimum mean square error (MMSE) estimation is widely used in signal processing, information theory, and related fields. Despite its practical robustness, the MMS…
A residual-iteration framework for alternating projections between affine subspaces
arXiv:2505.03982v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We reformulate the problem of alternating projections between two affine subspaces of a Hilbert space as the minimization of a least-squares functional associated…
On Alternating 6-Cycles in Edge-Coloured Graphs
arXiv:2505.09809v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In this short note, we use flag algebras to prove that the number of colour alternating 6-cycles in a red/blue colouring of a large clique is asymptotically maxim…
Gibbs randomness-compression proposition
arXiv:2505.23869v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: A proposition that connects randomness and compression is put forward via Gibbs entropy over set of measurement vectors associated with a compression process. In …
Efficient Multi-basis Quantum Position Verification Secure against Generalized Adversaries
arXiv:2506.03549v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Quantum position verification (QPV) enables multiple verifiers to certify a prover's location using quantum communication and physical assumptions. With experimen…
A Machine Learning Benchmarking Framework for Lipid Nanoparticle Transfection Efficiency Prediction
arXiv:2507.03209v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The discovery of new ionizable lipids for efficient lipid nanoparticle (LNP)-mediated RNA delivery remains a major bottleneck in RNA therapeutics development. Rec…
Converting T1-weighted MRI from 3T to 7T quality using deep learning
arXiv:2507.13782v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Ultra-high resolution 7 tesla (7T) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides detailed anatomical views, offering better signal-to-noise ratio, resolution and tiss…
Escaping Model Collapse via Synthetic Data Verification: Near-term Improvements and Long-term Convergence
arXiv:2510.16657v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Synthetic data has been increasingly used to train frontier generative models. However, recent studies raise key concerns that iteratively retraining a generative…
Skewness-Robust Causal Discovery in Location-Scale Noise Models
arXiv:2511.14441v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: To distinguish Markov equivalent graphs in causal discovery, it is necessary to restrict the structural causal model. Crucially, we need to be able to distinguish…
ROOFS: RObust biOmarker Feature Selection
arXiv:2601.05151v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Feature selection (FS) is essential for biomarker discovery and clinical predictive modeling. Over the past decades, methodological literature on FS has become ri…

arXiv:2601.07944v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Since the turn of the century, approximate Bayesian inference has steadily evolved as new computational techniques have been incorporated to handle increasingly c…
Bounds on Linear Tur\'{a}n Number for Trees
arXiv:2601.17325v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: A hypergraph $H$ is said to be \emph{linear} if every pair of vertices lies in at most one hyperedge. Given a family $\mathcal{F}$ of $r$-uniform hypergraphs, an …
