We simplify the approach of arXiv:1811.01432 using a notion of weak solution of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation which is more convenient to work with and is applicable whenever the non-linearity in the equation is convex.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-04-10T16:57:41.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "82B44", "82D30" ], "keywords": [ "finite-rank matrix inference", "limit free energy", "suitable hamilton-jacobi equation", "large-scale limit", "weak solution" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 26, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
