arXiv:2609. 11207v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Convex Optimization with Nested Evolving Feasible Sets (CONES)} was introduced in \cite{CONESVaze} where the objective function \(f\) remains fixed but the feasible region evolves over time as a nested sequence \(S_1 \supseteq S_2 \supseteq \cdots \supseteq S_T\).

By Dhruv Sarkar, Abhishek Sinha
The paper studies online convex optimization when the learner can only query an exact linear optimization oracle. It establishes a dimension‑free minimax expected regret bound of θ(GD max{√T, T/(1+min{Q,BT})^{1/4}}) for convex G‑Lipschitz losses, where Q is the total oracle budget and B the per‑round limit. The authors provide matching lower and upper bounds, showing how strict per‑round or total‑budget constraints affect the achievable regret, and extend the analysis to smooth losses with curvature‑dependent bounds.

arXiv:2607. 10808v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The problem of constrained online convex optimization is considered, where at each round, once a learner commits to an action $x_t \in \mathcal{X} \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, a convex loss function $f_t$ and a convex constraint function $g_t$ that drives the constraint $g_t(x)\le 0$ are revealed.

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).
