Natural policy gradient is a special case of doubly smoothed policy iteration that achieves distribution-free global geometric convergence to an epsilon-optimal policy in O((1-gamma)^{-1} log((1-gamma)^{-1} epsilon^{-1})) iterations.
Establishes Õ(1/k) mean-square last-iterate convergence for asynchronous average-reward Q-learning with adaptive stepsizes and proves adaptivity is necessary.
