A new paper published on arXiv by Weibel et al. addresses the regret rate in online learning for convex sets. The research proves a conjecture that fixed-coefficient methods cannot improve upon the $T^{3/4}$ regret rate, extending this lower bound to deterministic learners in an oracle-only model. The paper constructs specific instances to demonstrate these lower bounds, with one construction achieving regret at least $2^{-1/4}LDb^{-1/4}T^{3/4}$ and another yielding regret of at least $3LDT^{3/4}/4$ under different conditions.
