Robust Langevin Sampling under State-Dependent Heavy-Tailed Noise with Applications to LLM Fine-Tuning

Bayesian fine-tuning experiments with LLMs and vision-language models support the proposed state-dependent heavy-tailed oracle model and show that RA-LMC matches or outperforms state-of-the-art baselines in accuracy and uncertainty quantification.

A Banach-Space Theory of Markovian Halpern Iteration for Non-Expansive Maps

We study stochastic approximation of fixed points of a non-expansive operator $T$ when the oracle samples originate from a continuing Markovian trajectory. A direct block-minibatch implementation of Halpern iteration attains an expected last-iterate residual of order $O(\log N/N)$, but accrues a substantive complexity...

Learning to Control Coupled-Dynamics Environments with Joint Markov Decision Processes

A nonparametric distributional Bellman optimality operator for JMDPs is defined, and it is proved that when the induced marginal MDP has a unique optimal policy, its iterates converge in Wasserstein distance to the optimal joint return law.

EGGROLL, Unrolled: Understanding and Improving Low-Rank Evolution Strategies at Scale

This work describes the EGGROLL update mean field at finite rank and nonzero perturbation radius as a resolvent applied to the gradient of the perturbation-smoothed objective, and introduces LOO-ROLL, a leave-one-out estimator that replaces EGGROLL's two antithetic evaluations per direction by one.

A Finite-Iteration Theory for Asynchronous Categorical Distributional Temporal-Difference Learning

Finite-iteration behavior of the exact asynchronous recursions used by categorical distributional temporal-difference methods is studied and analogous finite-iteration guarantees for horizon-stacked categorical methods under episodic sampling are established.
