AdaNAG is line-search-free, parameter-free, and achieves the accelerated convergence rates $f(x_k) - f_\\star = \\mathcal{O}\\left(1/k^2\\right)$ and $\\min_{i\\in\\left\\{1,\\dots, k\\right\\}} \\|\\nabla f(x_i)\\|^2 = \\mathcal{O}\\left(1/k^3\\right)$ for $L$-smooth convex function $f$. We provide a Lyapunov analysis for the convergence proof of AdaNAG, which additionally enables us to propose a novel adaptive gradient descent (GD) method, AdaGD. AdaGD achieves the non-ergodic convergence rate $f(x_k) "},"claims":{"count":0,"items":[],"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"source":{"id":"2505.11670","kind":"arxiv","version":1},"verdict":{"id":null,"model_set":{},"created_at":null,"strongest_claim":"","one_line_summary":"","pipeline_version":null,"weakest_assumption":"","pith_extraction_headline":""},"integrity":{"clean":true,"summary":{"advisory":0,"critical":0,"by_detector":{},"informational":0},"endpoint":"/pith/2505.11670/integrity.json","findings":[],"available":true,"detectors_run":[],"snapshot_sha256":"c28c3603d3b5d939e8dc4c7e95fa8dfce3d595e45f758748cecf8e644a296938"},"references":{"count":0,"sample":[],"resolved_work":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57","internal_anchors":0},"formal_canon":{"evidence_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"author_claims":{"count":0,"strong_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"builder_version":"pith-number-builder-2026-05-17-v1"}
