We prove that any non-adaptive algorithm that tests whether an unknown
Boolean function $f\colon \{0, 1\}^n\to\{0, 1\} $ is a $k$-junta or $\epsilon$-far from every $k$-junta must make $\widetilde{\Omega}(k^{3/2} / \epsilon)$ many queries for a wide range of parameters $k$ and $\epsilon$. Our result dramatically improves previous lower ... more >>>
