arXiv:2610. 00545v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study adversarial online maximization of nonnegative, non-monotone DR-submodular functions over compact convex down-closed sets.
We study efficient algorithms for realizing the first-order oracle complexity of optimization of $G$-Lipschitz convex functions with respect to the $\ell_{q}$-norm over an $\ell_{p}$-ball of radius $R$, where $1\leq p,q\leq \infty$. For $p<q$, we obtain error $\widetilde{O}_{p,q}(GR/T^{1/p-(1/q-1/2)_{+}})$ after $T$ oracle queries, efficiently realizing the nearly optimal rates of (MBG+26), thereby resolving the nonsmooth end of the COLT 2015 open problem (Guz15b).

arXiv:2607. 13402v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In bandit problems, standard regret-minimizing algorithms treat exploration as an amortized cost, which can expose early participants to unfair ex-ante losses in settings such as clinical trials.
arXiv:2607. 14545v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Machine-learned predictions can speed up offline NP-hard optimization, but asking a predictor what to do amounts to asking it to solve the problem, and committing an unchecked prediction forfeits every worst-case guarantee.
In bandit problems, standard regret-minimizing algorithms treat exploration as an amortized cost, which can expose early participants to unfair ex-ante losses in settings such as clinical trials. Recent work addresses this by evaluating the sequence of per-round expected rewards through the generalized $p$-mean, interpolating between utilitarian welfare ($p=1$), Nash welfare ($p\to0$), and Rawlsian fairness ($p\to-\infty$).
