contents The adaptive regularization algorithm for unconstrained nonconvex optimization was shown in Nesterov and Polyak (2006) and Cartis, Gould and Toint (2011) to require, under standard assumptions, at most $\mathcal{O}(ε^{3/(3-q)})$ evaluations of the objective function and its derivatives of degrees one and two to produce an $ε$-approximate critical point of order $q\in\{1,2\}$. This bound was shown to be sharp for $q \in\{1,2\}$. This note revisits these results and shows that the example for which slow convergence is exhibited is not isolated, but that this behaviour occurs for a subset of univariate functions of nonzero measure.
