“When per-pool KV capacity is slack (the common case), M 1 is the only binding constraint and the combinatorial (lazy) greedy deployed on the fast path returns A g with G ( A g ) ≥ 1 2 G ⋆ [54]”

In the citing paper
“Submodular maximization (from the classical greedy analysis of Nemhauser-Wolsey-Fisher [12]) underpins cache and content placement [20]; the matroid-constrained guarantees we invoke are due to Fisher-Nemhauser-Wolsey [54] (combinatorial greedy, 1 2 ), Calinescu-Chekuri-Pál-Vondrák [53] (continuous greedy, 1 -1 /e ), and, for the matroid-plus-knapsack case, Lee-Mirrokni-Nagarajan-Sviridenko [62] (”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
