Barzilai-Borwein Fails Superlinear Convergence on an Open Set of Quadratics for Every Dimension $n\geq 4$

Dawei Li, Xiaotian Jiang, Mingyi Hong

Barzilai--Borwein (BB) method has shown strong practical performance in continuous optimization, yet its convergence dynamics remains poorly understood. In particular, a central unresolved question is whether BB converges superlinearly for almost every strictly convex quadratic p…

Generating Developable 3D Molecules via Pocket-Conditioned Diffusion and Property-Aware Optimization

Ruoxi Gao, Jiangweizhi Peng, Ziqi Chen, Frazier N. Baker, David C. Kombo, John L. Kane, et al.

Drug discovery and development is time-consuming and resource-intensive, motivating computational approaches such as diffusion models for de novo drug design. Many such models follow the structure-based drug design (SBDD) paradigm, generating molecules to fit a target binding poc…

Is One Layer Enough? Training A Single Transformer Layer Can Match Full-Parameter RL Training

Zijian Zhang, Rizhen Hu, Athanasios Glentis, Dawei Li, Chung-Yiu Yau, Hongzhou Lin, et al.

Reinforcement learning (RL) has become a central component of post-training large language models (LLMs), yet little is understood about how RL adaptation is distributed across transformer layers. Existing approaches typically update all model parameters uniformly, implicitly ass…
