... We talked about a recent protocol [Z14] in Lecture 8. It’ll be great if the exponential dependence on the degree can be improved. Bait 1: It may not be that hard (actually I didn’t put too much time on this yet). Bait 2: If you can improve it, you’ll get a publication, likely in a top conference. [Z ...
