arXiv:2605.00393v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement learning (RL) in large environments often suffers from severe computational bottlenecks, as conventional regret minimization algorithms require repeated, costly calls to planning and statistical estimation oracles. While recent advances have explored offline oracle-efficient algorithms, their computational complexity typically scales with the cardinality of the state and action spaces, rendering them intractable for large-scale or continuous environments. In this paper, we address this fundamental limitation by studying offline oracle-efficient episodic RL through the lens of log-barrier and log-determinant regularization. Specifically, for tabular Markov Decision Processes (MDPs), we propose a novel algorithm that achieves the optimal $\tilde{O}(\sqrt{T})$ regret bound while requiring only $O(H\log\log T)$ calls to both the offline statistical estimation and planning oracles when $T$ is known and $O(H\log T)$ calls when $T$ is unknown. Crucially, this oracle complexity is entirely independent of the size of the state and action spaces. This strict independence drastically reduces the planning oracle complexity, representing a substantial improvement over existing offline oracle-efficient algorithms (Qian et al., 2024). Furthermore, we demonstrate the versatility of our framework by generalizing the algorithm to linear MDPs featuring infinite state spaces and arbitrary action spaces. We prove that this generalized approach successfully attains meaningful sub-linear regret. Consequently, our work yields the first doubly oracle-efficient (i.e., efficient with respect to both statistical estimation and policy optimization) regret minimization algorithm capable of solving MDPs with infinite state and action spaces, significantly expanding the boundaries of computationally tractable RL.
