We study nonnegative submodular maximization subject to a general matroid when the offline algorithm is given an arbitrary controlled value oracle. Our main result is an adversarial resilience theorem for the Spiteful Greedy Swap Poisson Process (SGS-Poisson): without modifying its Poisson intensity, single-element exchange rule, or spiteful drop step, the algorithm retains limiting approximation factors 1/e for non-monotone objectives and 1-1/e for monotone objectives. More precisely, under every controlled oracle \widehat f satisfying |\widehat f(S)-f(S)|\le ξ for every set S, our implementation returns a feasible set with expected value at least (1/e-\varepsilon)\OPT-O(kξ) and (1-1/e-\varepsilon)\OPT-O(kξ), respectively, using \widetilde O(nk^2\varepsilon^{-2}) oracle calls. As a consequence, the offline-to-online reduction yields full-bandit CMAB algorithms for general matroid-constrained submodular rewards with exact limiting approximation-regret factors 1/e and 1-1/e and \widetilde O(n^{1/5}k^{4/5}T^{4/5}) regret.
Adversarial Resilience of Poisson-Process Submodular Maximization over Matroids: From Robust Offline Optimization to Full-Bandit Learning
