Abstract
We present several results regarding randomized one-round communication complexity. Our results include a connection to the VC-dimension, a study of the problem of computing the inner product of two real valued vectors, and a relation between "simultaneous" protocols and one-round protocols.

Bibliographical note
Funding Information:It follows from this claim, that in at least 1− 1=8 of the sub-rows in A1[A0, the relative weight of entries with value 0 is at least 0(1 − 1=8). Since R is good, in particular, it is good-in-rows. For < 2−8, 1 − 1=8 > 1=4, and thus necessarily 0 < 1=4=(1 − 1=8) which is less than 2 1=4. 2 Acknowledgments.
