We investigate a nonstochastic bandit setting in which the loss of an action is not immediately charged to the player, but rather spread over the subsequent rounds in an adversarial way. The instantaneous loss observed by the player at the end of each round is then a sum of many loss components of previously played actions. This setting encompasses as a special case the easier task of bandits with delayed feedback, a well-studied framework where the player observes the delayed losses individually. Our first contribution is a general reduction transforming a standard bandit algorithm into one that can operate in the harder setting: We bound the regret of the transformed algorithm in terms of the stability and regret of the original algorithm. Then, we show that the transformation of a suitably tuned FTRL with Tsallis entropy has a regret of order $\sqrt{(d+1)KT}$, where $d$ is the maximum delay, $K$ is the number of arms, and $T$ is the time horizon. Finally, we show that our results cannot be improved in general by exhibiting a matching (up to a log factor) lower bound on the regret of any algorithm operating in this setting.

We study the problem of nonstochastic bandits with infinitely many experts: A learner aims to maximize the total reward by taking actions sequentially based on bandit feedback while benchmarking against a countably infinite set of experts. We propose a variant of Exp4.P that, for finitely many experts, enables inference of correct expert rankings while preserving the order of the regret upper bound. We then incorporate the variant into a meta-algorithm that works on infinitely many experts. We prove a high-probability upper bound of $\tilde{\mathcal{O}} \big( i^*K + \sqrt{KT} \big)$ on the regret, up to polylog factors, where $i^*$ is the unknown position of the best expert, $K$ is the number of actions, and $T$ is the time horizon. We also provide an example of structured experts and discuss how to expedite learning in such case. Our meta-learning algorithm achieves the tightest regret upper bound for the setting considered when $i^* = \tilde{\mathcal{O}} \big( \sqrt{T/K} \big)$. If a prior distribution is assumed to exist for $i^*$, the probability of satisfying a tight regret bound increases with $T$, the rate of which can be fast.
