arXiv:2602.23811v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We investigate the theoretical aspects of offline reinforcement learning (RL) under general function approximation. While prior works (e.g., Xie et al., 2021) have established the theoretical foundations of learning a good policy from offline data via pessimism, existing algorithms that are computationally tractable (often in an oracle-efficient sense), such as PSPI, only apply to finite and small action spaces. Moreover, these algorithms rely on state-wise mirror descent and require actors to be implicitly induced from the critic funct
