Uniformity Testing over Hypergrids with Subcube Conditioning

Abstract
We give an algorithm for testing uniformity of distributions supported on hypergrids , which makes many queries to a subcube conditional sampling oracle with . When is a constant, our algorithm is nearly optimal and strengthens the algorithm of [CCK+21] which has the same query complexity but works for hypercubes only. A key technical contribution behind the analysis of our algorithm is a proof of a robust version of Pisier's inequality for functions over hypergrids using Fourier analysis.
