Sharp spectral norm concentration and regularization of sparse random tensors

arXiv:2609.20520v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We prove sharp spectral-norm bounds and construct a mean-fitting regularization procedure for sparse random tensors of fixed order $k$. For an $n\times\cdots\times n$ tensor with independentBernoulli$(p)$ entries, the centered norm is $O(\sqrt{np})$ with polynomially high probability whenever $np\ge c\log n$. This removes the logarithmic loss in Zhou and Zhu (2021). We also determine the expected centered norm at every sparsity level: for every $0Source：https://arxiv.org/abs/2609.20520
