Using tools from viscosity theory, we characterize the long-time behavior of the value function of the game between the forecaster and the adversary. We provide lower and upper bounds for the growth rate of regret without relying on a comparison result. We show that depending on the description of regret, the limiting behavior of the game can significantly differ.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-10-31T00:15:39.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "68T05", "35K55", "35K65", "35Q91" ], "keywords": [ "limited adversary", "prediction", "expert advice", "adversarial corruption", "viscosity theory" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
