Convergence analysis under consistent error bounds

We introduce the notion of consistent error bound functions which provides a unifying framework for error bounds for multiple convex sets. This framework goes beyond the classical Lipschitzian and Holderian error bounds and includes logarithmic and entropic error bound found in the exponential cone. It also includes the error bounds obtainable under the theory of amenable cones. Our main result is that the convergence rate of several projection algorithms for feasibility problems can be expressed explicitly in terms of the underlying consistent error bound function. Another feature is the usage of Karamata theory and functions of regular variations which allows us to reason about convergence rates while bypassing certain complicated expressions.
