arXiv:2607. 20258v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study regret minimization for learning CDF-related objectives of the form \[ g(x)\cdot\mathbb{P}_{X\sim\mathcal{D}}(X\le x), \] over $[0,1]^2$, where $g$ is a known Lipschitz function and $\mathcal{D}$ is an unknown distribution.

arXiv:2608. 25182v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In this paper, we study alternating regret in online convex optimization (OCO), motivated by the success of alternating learning dynamics in two-player games.

Abstract: We study switching regret in adversarial multi-armed bandits, where the learner competes with an arm sequence that changes at most $S$ times. When $S$...

arXiv:2605. 09454v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We study the $\textit{single-index bandit}$ problem, where rewards depend on an unknown one-dimensional projection of high-dimensional contexts through an unknown reward function.

arXiv:2608. 15036v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The Lipschitz bandit problem extends the traditional multi-armed bandit framework to continuous action spaces by assuming that the reward functions satisfy a Lipschitz condition.

arXiv:2602. 09474v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study reinforcement learning in MDPs whose transition function is stochastic at most steps but may behave adversarially at a fixed subset of $\Lambda$ steps per episode.

arXiv:2607. 19854v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study horizon-free regret minimization for finite-horizon time-homogeneous tabular Markov decision processes with $S$ states, $A$ actions, horizon $H$, and per-trajectory total reward bounded by $1$.

arXiv:2602. 06404v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study distributed adversarial bandits, where $N$ agents cooperate to minimize the global average loss while observing only their own local losses.

arXiv:2607. 05813v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study repeated contextual procurement auctions in which the platform must learn context-dependent product values from bandit feedback.

arXiv:2608. 12753v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study decentralized multi-player reinforcement learning in episodic tabular Markov decision processes (MDPs) under three forms of information asymmetry: (A) unobserved actions with common rewards, (B) observed actions with independent rewards, and (C) unobserved actions with independent rewards.
