            We show how randomized rounding based on Grothendieck’s identity can be used to prove a nearly tight bound on the covariance loss–the amount of covariance that is lost by taking conditional expectation. This result yields a new type of weak Szemeredi regularity lemma for positive semidefinite matrices and kernels. Moreover, it can be used to construct differentially private synthetic data.more » « lessFree, publicly-accessible full text available February 1, 2026

            Differentially private synthetic data provide a powerful mechanism to enable data analysis while protecting sensitive information about individuals. However, when the data lie in a high-dimensional space, the accuracy of the synthetic data suffers from the curse of dimensionality. In this paper, we propose a differentially private algorithm to generate low-dimensional synthetic data efficiently from a high-dimensional dataset with a utility guarantee with respect to the Wasserstein distance. A key step of our algorithm is a private principal component analysis (PCA) procedure with a near-optimal accuracy bound that circumvents the curse of dimensionality. Unlike the standard perturbation analysis, our analysis of private PCA works without assuming the spectral gap for the covariance matrix.more » « lessFree, publicly-accessible full text available January 15, 2026
