    1. given a distribution D with a random rank ordering, a non-adversarialoracle would output a random rank ordering that is not necessarily the same as the rank orderingof D.

      What on earth does this mean?

    2. Therefore, under a noisy oracle, the learned Treap is at most an additive constant worse than alearned Treap with a perfect oracle

      Wouldn't each element have at most constant added? Doesn't this add O(N)?

    3. Since the oracle is non-adversarial, the expected depth of any element is still bounded by2Hn − 1 by Theorem 3.1

      This is because 2H_n - 1 is the expected depth of the Random Treap, this isn't a bound, it's an expectation
