In this paper we look at a class of random optimization problems. We discuss ways that can help determine typical behavior of their solutions. When the dimensions of the optimization problems are large such an information often can be obtained without actually solving the original problems. Moreover, we also discover that fairly often one can actually determine many quantities of interest (such as, for example, the typical optimal values of the objective functions) completely analytically. We present a few general ideas and emphasize that the range of applications is enormous.

    math.ST 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    For Gaussian data in the proportional limit, the spectral-norm error of the sample covariance converges to γ̂√φ1/(√φ1−√α), with γ̂ solving an equation in the covariance spectrum.

  2. An RDT based approach to large deviations of Wishart and Wigner matrices spectral edges

    math.PR 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Develops an RDT-based LDP framework for spectral edges of Wishart and Wigner matrices matching prior Coulomb gas results.

  3. Optimal spectral initializers impact on phase retrieval phase transitions -- an RDT view

    stat.ML 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Optimal spectral initializers at the theoretical phase retrieval threshold sit in flat landscape regions, so roughly 15% oversampling is needed for reliable descending algorithms.

  4. Phase transition of \emph{descending} phase retrieval algorithms

    stat.ML 2025-06 reject novelty 6.0 of 10

    The paper derives RDT-based lower bounds and predicts a phase transition at oversampling ratio α≈1.4 where descending phase retrieval algorithms transition from failing to succeeding, but the key isomorphism with conv...

    stat.ML 2024-12 reject novelty 6.0 of 10

    For deep ReLU networks with random Gaussian weights, the paper gives upper bounds on the layer expansion needed for injectivity and finds the expansion need saturates by four layers.

  6. Controlled Loosening-up (CLuP) -- achieving exact MIMO ML in polynomial time

    cs.IT 2019-09 reject novelty 6.0 of 10

    CLuP, an iterative convex optimization algorithm, is claimed to achieve MIMO ML detection performance in polynomial time, but the claim rests on heuristic random duality arguments and an empirical iteration count.

  7. A CLuP algorithm to practically achieve $\sim 0.76$ SK--model ground state free energy

    cond-mat.dis-nn 2025-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    The authors propose a CLuP-SK barrier-descent algorithm and report it achieves approximately 0.76 of the SK ground state free energy for n around 2000 to 8000, approaching the theoretical Parisi limit of about 0.763.

    stat.ML 2025-06 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    For the asymmetric binary perceptron, the worst-case local entropy breaks down for constraint density alpha in (0.77, 0.78), matching replica predictions and the range where fast algorithms stop working.

    stat.ML 2025-06 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    For rank d phase retrieval with Gaussian measurements, descending gradient algorithms are predicted to succeed above a sample complexity ratio near 2.79 for d=2, with lifted bounds lowering this estimate and simulatio...

    cs.IT 2019-09 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Using Random Duality Theory, the paper argues that the CLuP algorithm reaches near-optimal MIMO ML detection in a small, dimension-independent number of quadratic-programming iterations.
