What is missing. This record has no bottom line, key findings, reported figures, evidence dimensions. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
We present a tightened convergence analysis of clipped gradient descent on $(L_0, L_1)$-smooth functions, with quantitative constants. Building on the ideas of Koloskova et al (2023), we refactor several case disjunctions to reveal the central role of a control of the bias derived from fundamental properties of $\ell_2$-projection, simplifying proofs. We also extend the domain of validity from $η\leq 1 / (9 β)$ to $η< 1 /β$ where $β= L_0 + c L_1$ for clipping constant $c$, which matches the more traditional analysis of smooth functions. We strengthen the convergence criterion from $\left( \min_{t < T} \mathbb{E}[\lVert \nabla f(x_t) \rVert_2] \right)$ to $\left( \frac{1}{T} \sum_{t < T} \mathbb{E}[\lVert \nabla f(x_t) \rVert_2] \right)$ with matching speed, and lower the final achievable loss from $\mathcal{O}(\min(σ^2/c, σ))$ to the more precise $6 \min(σ^2 /c, 3 σ)$.
