We present a lower bound of 1 + e-"' z 1.6065 on the competitive ratio of randomized algorithms for the weighted 2-cache problem, which is a special case of the 2-server problem. This improves the previously best known lower bound of e/(e-1) N 1.582 for both problems. @

We prove that the power function of the likelihood ratio test for MANOVA attains its minimum when the rank of the location parameter matrix G decreases from s to 1. This provides a theoretical justification of a result that is known in the literature based only on numerical studies.
