Private Approximation of Graph Spectra and Cuts via Spectral Amplifiers

Chenglin Fan, Jingcheng Liu, Pan Peng +2

We study the problem of releasing a synthetic graph that approximates the sizes of all cuts of an input graph under edge-level differential privacy. If one insists on purely additi…

Finding Differentially Private Second Order Stationary Points in Stochastic Minimax Optimization

Difei Xu, Youming Tao, Meng Ding +2

We provide the first study of the problem of finding differentially private (DP) second-order stationary points (SOSP) in stochastic (non-convex) minimax optimization. Existing lit…

Learning-Augmented Ski Rental with Discrete Distributions: A Bayesian Approach

Bosun Kang, Hyejun Park, Chenglin Fan

We revisit the classic ski rental problem through the lens of Bayesian decision-making and machine-learned predictions. While traditional algorithms minimize worst-case cost withou…

Diffusion Models under Alternative Noise: Simplified Analysis and Sensitivity

Juhyeok Choi, Chenglin Fan

Diffusion models, typically formulated as discretizations of stochastic differential equations (SDEs), have achieved state-of-the-art performance in generative tasks. However, thei…

ACEvo: Adversarial Co-Evolution of Problem Distributions and Solvers for Combinatorial Optimization

Ruibo Duan, Yuxin Liu, Haoran Ye +3

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used to synthesize heuristic programs, yet most existing pipelines optimize solvers against fixed benchmark distributions. This static…

A Generalized Binary Tree Mechanism for Differentially Private Approximation of All-Pair Distances

Michael Dinitz, Chenglin Fan, Jingcheng Liu +2

We study the problem of approximating all-pair distances in a weighted undirected graph with differential privacy, introduced by Sealfon [Sea16]. Given a publicly known undirected…
