    Sparse Transformer (Child et al., 2019) reduces attention complexity to O(N*sqrt(N)), not O(N log N).

    Before

    reducing complexity from O(N^2) to O(N log N)

    After

    reducing complexity from O(N^2) to O(Nu221AN)

    Why: Sparse Transformer (Child et al., 2019) reduces attention complexity to O(N*sqrt(N)), not O(N log N). Verified fix already live in body; no leftover instances found in faq/excerpt/meta.
