We study linear contextual bandits under adversarial corruption and heavy-tailed noise with finite $(1+\epsilon)$-th moments for some $\epsilon \in (0,1]$. Existing work that addresses both adversarial corruption and heavy-tailed noise relies on a finite variance (i.e., finite second-moment) assumption and suffers from computational inefficiency. We propose a computationally efficient algorithm based on online mirror descent that achieves robustness to both adversarial corruption and heavy-tailed noise. While the existing algorithm incurs $\mathcal{O}(t\log T)$ computational cost, our algorithm reduces this to $\mathcal{O}(1)$ per round. We establish an additive regret bound consisting of a term depending on the $(1+\epsilon)$-moment bound of the noise and a term depending on the total amount of corruption. In particular, when $\epsilon = 1$, our result recovers existing guarantees under finite-variance assumptions. When no corruption is present, it matches the best-known rates for linear contextual bandits with heavy-tailed noise. Moreover, the algorithm requires no prior knowledge of the noise moment bound or the total amount of corruption and still guarantees sublinear regret.
