揭示离散优化算法与连续微分方程的稳定性关联，指导算法设计。

This work establishes a rigorous connection between stability properties of discrete-time algorithms (DTAs) and corresponding continuous-time dynamical systems derived through $ O(s^r) $-resolution ordinary differential equations (ODEs). We show that for discrete- and continuous-time dynamical systems satisfying a mild error assumption, exponential stability of a common equilibrium with respect to the continuous time dynamics implies exponential stability of the corresponding equilibrium for the discrete-time dynamics, provided that the step size is chosen sufficiently small. We extend this result to common compact invariant sets. We prove that if an equilibrium is exponentially stable for the $ O(s^r) $-resolution ODE, then it is also exponentially stable for the associated DTA. We apply this framework to analyse the limit point properties of several prominent optimisation algorithms, including Two-Timescale Gradient Descent--Ascent (TT-GDA), Generalised Extragradient (GEG), Two-Timescale Proximal Point (TT-PPM), Damped Newton (DN), Regularised Damped Newton (RDN), and the Jacobian method (JM), by studying their $ O(1) $- and $ O(s) $-resolution ODEs. We show that under a proper choice of hyperparameters, the set of saddle points of the objective function is a subset of the set of exponentially stable equilibria of GEG, TT-PPM, DN, and RDN. We relax the common Hessian invariance assumption through direct analysis of the resolution ODEs, broadening the applicability of our results. Numerical examples illustrate the theoretical findings.
