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).
