The stochastic Zakharov system in dimension $d \geq 4$: Local well-posedness and regularization by noise for scattering

In this paper, we develop the well-posedness theory and uncover the noise-regularization effect on scattering for the stochastic Zakharov system in dimensions $d \geq 4$ and beyond the energy space. Our focus is particularly directed at the large data regime, where the global existence and long-time dynamics of the deterministic Zakharov system remain largely open. We prove the local well-posedness of the stochastic system in the full deterministic regularity regime and establish a blow-up alternative at the endpoint regularity, which implies the persistence of regularity in the full well-posedness regime. Furthermore, we prove that for any large initial data, with high probability, non-conservative noise yields global and scattering solutions. Our proof introduces a tailored functional framework. To establish local well-posedness, we employ a refinement of adapted Fourier restriction and lateral Strichartz spaces, which allows us to control both the nonlinear interactions and the critical first-order derivative perturbations arising from rescaling transforms. To achieve the noise-regularization effect, we augment this setting with maximal function spaces. We derive new trilinear estimates for the stochastic wave nonlinearity that are crucial for the global dynamics by fully exploiting the temporal regularity of geometric Brownian motions in scaling-(sub)critical Besov spaces.

Regularization by noise for the energy- and mass-critical nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations

In this article we prove a regularization by noise phenomenon for the energy-critical and mass-critical nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations. We show that for any deterministic data, the probability that the corresponding solution exists globally and scatters goes to one as the strength of the non-conservative noise goes to infinity. The proof relies on the rescaling transform and a new observation on the rapid uniform decay of geometric Brownian motions after short time.

The WMDP Benchmark: Measuring and Reducing Malicious Use With Unlearning

The White House Executive Order on Artificial Intelligence highlights the risks of large language models (LLMs) empowering malicious actors in developing biological, cyber, and chemical weapons. To measure these risks of malicious use, government institutions and major AI labs are developing evaluations for hazardous capabilities in LLMs. However, current evaluations are private, preventing further research into mitigating risk. Furthermore, they focus on only a few, highly specific pathways for malicious use. To fill these gaps, we publicly release the Weapons of Mass Destruction Proxy (WMDP) benchmark, a dataset of 3,668 multiple-choice questions that serve as a proxy measurement of hazardous knowledge in biosecurity, cybersecurity, and chemical security. WMDP was developed by a consortium of academics and technical consultants, and was stringently filtered to eliminate sensitive information prior to public release. WMDP serves two roles: first, as an evaluation for hazardous knowledge in LLMs, and second, as a benchmark for unlearning methods to remove such hazardous knowledge. To guide progress on unlearning, we develop RMU, a state-of-the-art unlearning method based on controlling model representations. RMU reduces model performance on WMDP while maintaining general capabilities in areas such as biology and computer science, suggesting that unlearning may be a concrete path towards reducing malicious use from LLMs. We release our benchmark and code publicly at https://wmdp.ai

MP2: A Momentum Contrast Approach for Recommendation with Pointwise and Pairwise Learning

Binary pointwise labels (aka implicit feedback) are heavily leveraged by deep learning based recommendation algorithms nowadays. In this paper we discuss the limited expressiveness of these labels may fail to accommodate varying degrees of user preference, and thus lead to conflicts during model training, which we call annotation bias. To solve this issue, we find the soft-labeling property of pairwise labels could be utilized to alleviate the bias of pointwise labels. To this end, we propose a momentum contrast framework (MP2) that combines pointwise and pairwise learning for recommendation. MP2 has a three-tower network structure: one user network and two item networks. The two item networks are used for computing pointwise and pairwise loss respectively. To alleviate the influence of the annotation bias, we perform a momentum update to ensure a consistent item representation. Extensive experiments on real-world datasets demonstrate the superiority of our method against state-of-the-art recommendation algorithms.
