| Abstract | The Johnson-Lindenstrauss transform is a dimensionality reduction technique with a wide range of applications to theoretical computer science. It is specified by a distribution over projection matrices from $R^{n}$ → $R^{k}$ where k ≪ d and states that k = $O(ε^{™2}$ log 1/Δ) dimensions suffice to approximate the norm of any fixed vector in $R^{d}$ to within a factor of 1 ± ε with probability at least 1 ™ Δ. In this paper we show that this bound on k is optimal up to a constant factor, improving upon a previous $Ω(ε^{™2}$ log 1/Δ)/log(1/ε) dimension bound of Alon. Our techniques are based on lower bounding the information cost of a novel one-way communication game and yield the first space lower bounds in a data stream model that depend on the error probability Δ. For many streaming problems, the most naïve way of achieving error probability Δ is to first achieve constant probability, then take the median of O(log 1/Δ) independent repetitions. Our techniques show that for a wide range of problems this is in fact optimal! As an example, we show that estimating the $l_{p}-distance$ for any p ∈ [0, 2] requires $Ω(ε^{™2}$ log n log 1/Δ) space, even for vectors in {0, $1\}^{n}.$ This is optimal in all parameters and closes a long line of work on this problem. We also show the number of distinct elements requires $Ω(ε^{™2}$ log 1/Δ + log n) space, which is optimal if $ε^{™2}$ = Ω(log n). We also improve previous lower bounds for entropy in the strict turnstile and general turnstile models by a multiplicative factor of Ω(log 1/Δ). Finally, we give an application to one-way communication complexity under product distributions, showing that unlike in the case of constant Δ, the VC-dimension does not characterize the complexity when Δ = o(1). |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
