Muon and related matrix-sign optimizers are increasingly used to pre-train large language models, but their effect on the internal geometry of individual weight matrices is not well understood. This preliminary report proposes a unified framework built on a single idealizing assu…
Adaptive experiments for average treatment effects (ATE) require randomized allocations balancing valid inference with statistical efficiency. The oracle design is a covariate-dependent Neyman rule governed by unknown arm-conditional outcome variances. We investigate whether this…
