• Abstract: The standard closed form lower bound on $\sigma$ for providing $(\epsilon, \delta)$-differential privacy by adding zero mean Gaussian noise with variance $\sigma^2$ is $\sigma > \Delta\sqrt {2}(\epsilon^{-1}) \sqrt {\log \left( 5/4\delta^{-1} \right)}$ for $\epsilon \in (0,1)$. We present a similar closed form bound $\sigma \geq \Delta (\epsilon\sqrt{2})^{-1} \left(\sqrt{az+\epsilon} + s\sqrt{az}\right)$ for $z=-\log(4\delta(1-\delta))$ and $(a,s)=(1,1)$ if $\delta \leq 1/2$ and $(a,s)=(\pi/4,-1)$ otherwise. Our bound is valid for all $\epsilon > 0$ and is always lower (better). We also present a sufficient condition for $(\epsilon, \delta)$-differential privacy when adding noise distributed according to even and log-concave densities supported everywhere.

  We propose a key twist into the finite-sum minimization, dubbed as continual finite-sum minimization. Our approach significantly improves upon the $mathcalO(n/epsilon)$ FOs that $mathrmStochasticGradientDescent$ requires. We also prove that there is no natural first-order method with $mathcalOleft(n/epsilonalpharight)$ complexity gradient for $alpha 1/4$, establishing that the first-order complexity of our method is nearly tight.

For $p in (1,2)$,we obtain an $tildeO(sd2/epsilon + sd/mathrmpoly(epsilon)$ upper bound.
