  • We study quantitatively the overparametrization limit of the original Wasserstein-GAN algorithm. Effectively, we show that the algorithm is a stochastic discretization of a system of continuity equations for the parameter distributions of the generator and discriminator. We show that parameter clipping to satisfy the Lipschitz condition in the algorithm induces a discontinuous vector field in the mean field dynamics, which gives rise to blow-up in finite time of the mean field dynamics. We look into a specific toy example that shows that all solutions to the mean field equations converge in the long time limit to time periodic solutions, this helps explain the failure to converge.
