State-Dependent Lyapunov Analysis of Rank-1 Matrix Factorization

Jaehong Moon

A state-dependent Lyapunov method with quadratic certificates proves global convergence for gradient descent on rank-1 matrix factorization by deriving the certificates from structural axioms rather than ad hoc constructions.

Claims

C1strongest claim

In the certified regime, this mechanism yields convergence to a global minimizer; in the post-critical regime, it forces trajectories toward a terminal balanced manifold. The certificates arise from the monotonicity structure of the dynamics, rather than from ad hoc algebraic constructions.

C2weakest assumption

The structural axioms of the state-dependent Lyapunov framework hold, allowing the scalar certificate to be uniquely determined by local Lagrange analysis that constrains the signal and noise blocks of rank-1 extensions.

C3one line summary

A state-dependent Lyapunov method with quadratic certificates proves global convergence for gradient descent on rank-1 matrix factorization by deriving the certificates from structural axioms rather than ad hoc constructions.
