In no particular order, Byramji, Kane, Morris, and Ostuni proved an almost tight separation for adaptive vs non-adaptive sampling in the word model. Previous papers I blogged about earlier, see this and this prove weaker separations. Another very cool work is the sampling lower bound for low-degree polynomials by Khodabandeh and Shinkar. They appear to […]
