RESUMO
A long-standing open question in query complexity asks whether there is a total Boolean function f with R(f) << C(f), where R(f) and C(f) denote its bounded-error randomized query complexity and certificate complexity, respectively. We construct a function with R(f) = O~(sqrt{C(f)}), which is optimal up to log factors. The same function also has $Q(f) = O~(C(f)^{1/4}), where Q(f) is the bounded-error quantum query complexity of f, which is also nearly optimal.
