Abstract
In this short note, we show that the problem of computing the recursive teaching dimension (RTD) for a concept class (given explicitly as input) requires $n^{Ω(\log n)}$-time, assuming the exponential time hypothesis (ETH). This matches the running time $n^{O(\log n)}$ of the brute-force algorithm for the problem.
