contents We study online contention resolution schemes (OCRSs) and prophet inequalities for non-product distributions. Specifically, when the active set is sampled according to a pairwise-independent (PI) distribution, we show a $(1-o_k(1))$-selectable OCRS for uniform matroids of rank $k$, and $Ω(1)$-selectable OCRSs for laminar, graphic, cographic, transversal, and regular matroids. These imply prophet inequalities with the same ratios when the set of values is drawn according to a PI distribution. Our results complement recent work of Dughmi, Kalayci, and Patel (STOC '24) showing that no $ω(1/k)$-selectable OCRS exists in the PI setting for general matroids of rank $k$.
