Submodularity Is Barely Testable
Diptaksho Palit, Yuichi Yoshida
原文摘要
In 2010, Seshadhri and Vondrák asked: is submodularity testable? For functions $f : \{ 0, 1 \}^n \to \mathbb{R}$, they gave a tester that makes $2^{O(\sqrt{n} \log n)}$ queries. We show that every tester, even an adaptive one with two-sided error, must make $2^{Ω(\sqrt{n})}$ queries, thereby concluding: submodularity is barely testable.
