We study the problem of \emph{adversarially robust} PAC learning. In this framework, the learner observes independent samples from an unknown distribution over $\mathcal{X} \times \{0,1\}$, as in clas...

The paper revisits realizable multiclass PAC learning with bandit feedback, correcting a previously claimed lower bound on sample complexity. It introduces a new anchored dimension, “aBDS,” and establishes a constant‑free three‑part lower bound, while also providing tighter upper bounds that eliminate dependence on the total label count. The authors demonstrate that the optimal sample complexity can vary dramatically even among classes with identical dimensional profiles, revealing a confidence direct‑sum phenomenon and a rank‑saturation phase transition.
