Abstract: Tracking changing comparators is a central problem in online learning. For exp-concave losses, previous work established the $T^{1/3}P_T^{2/3}$ depende...

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:2609. 20687v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study first-order black-box convex optimization over an $\ell_p$-ball for objectives Lipschitz in the $\ell_q$-norm, solving in the affirmative the nonsmooth version of the COLT open question (Guz15b) on whether the geometry of a smaller feasible set ($p < q$) can improve convergence rates in convex optimization, and matching prior lower bounds up to logarithmic factors.
