Google paper shows single-vector embeddings need MUVERA-level dimensions to match multivector similarity

Researchers at Google prove a near-optimal lower bound for single-vector embeddings when approximating maximum inner product similarity. Their result shows that a single-vector representation needs a dimension as large as MUVERA’s known upper bound to match multivector similarity, tightening the theoretical gap around this approximation problem.
