arXiv:2606.00312v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Over the past half-dozen years, stochastic rounding (SR) has regained significant attention as a quantization scheme for low-precision floating-point arithmetic, with applications spanning numerical analysis and modern machine learning systems. Recent work has shown that SR acts as an implicit regularizer by increasing the smallest singular value of extremely tall-and-thin (or, symmetrically, short-and-fat) matrices. In this work, we substantially sharpen and extend this understanding in two directions. First, we show that the regularization ef
