Establishes exponential convergence in Wasserstein distance for the mean-field limit and finite-particle approximation of a consensus-based method solving nonconvex bi-level optimization problems.
Sublevel sets of invex functions are connected under mild assumptions, with the result extended to solution sets in invex-incave minimax problems and incave games.
