Abstract: Let varepsilonin(0,1) and XsubsetmathbbRd be arbitrary with |X| having size n>1. The Johnson-Lindenstrauss lemma states there exists f:XightarrowmathbbRm with m=O(varepsilon−2logn) such that forall xin X forall yin X, |x-y|_2 le |f(x)-f(y)|_2 le (1+varepsilon)|x-y|_2 . We show that a strictly stronger version of this statement holds, answering one of the main open questions of [MMMR18]: "forallyinX" in the above statement may be replaced with "forallyinmathbbRd", so that f not only preserves distances within X, but also distances to X from the rest of space. Previously this stronger version was only known with the worse bound m=O(varepsilon−4logn). Our proof is via a tighter analysis of (a specific instantiation of) the embedding recipe of [MMMR18].
