Gradient descent is the primary workhorse for optimizing large-scale problems in machine learning. However, its performance is highly sensitive to the choice of the learning rate. A key limitation of gradient descent is its lack of natural…

We extend results of Dos Santos Ferreira-Kenig-Sjoestrand-Uhlmann (math.AP/0601466) to less smooth coefficients, and we show that measurements on part of the boundary for the magnetic Schroedinger operator determine uniquely the magnetic…

Consider the variation seminorm of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroup $H_t$ in dimension one, taken with respect to $t$. We show that this seminorm defines an operator of weak type $(1,1)$ for the relevant Gaussian measure. The analogous…

We consider properties of second-order operators $H = -\sum^d_{i,j=1} \partial_i \, c_{ij} \, \partial_j$ on $\Ri^d$ with bounded real symmetric measurable coefficients. We assume that $C = (c_{ij}) \geq 0$ almost everywhere, but allow for…

In this paper we introduce the notion of distributional $k$-Hessian associated with Besov type functions in Euclidean $n$-space, $k=2,\ldots,n$. Particularly, inspired by recent work of Baer and Jerison on distributional Hessian…

The main result (roughly) is that if (H_i) converges weakly to H and if also f(H_i) converges weakly to f(H), for a single strictly convex continuous function f, then (H_i) must converge strongly to H. One application is that if f(pr(H)) =…
