contents We consider the matroid prophet inequality problem. This problem has been extensively studied in the case of adaptive mechanisms. In particular, there is a tight $2$-competitive mechanism for all matroids. However, it is not known what classes of matroids admit non-adaptive mechanisms with constant guarantee. Recently, it was shown that there are constant-competitive non-adaptive mechanisms for graphic matroids. In this work, we show that various known classes of matroids admit constant-competitive non-adaptive mechanisms.
