Robust matrix completion aims to recover a low-rank matrix from a subset of noisy entries perturbed by complex noises, where traditional methods for matrix completion may perform poorly due to utilizing $l_2$ error norm in optimization. In…

Heavy-tailed errors impair the accuracy of the least squares estimate, which can be spoiled by a single grossly outlying observation. As argued in the seminal work of Peter Huber in 1973 [{\it Ann. Statist.} {\bf 1} (1973) 799--821], robust…

We investigate high-dimensional sparse regression when both the noise and the design matrix exhibit heavy-tailed behavior. Standard algorithms typically fail in this regime, as heavy-tailed covariates distort the empirical risk geometry. We…
