Abstract
In this correspondence, we correct an erroneous result on the achievability part of the R\'enyi common information with order in [1]. The new achievability result (upper bound) of the R\'enyi common information no longer coincides with Wyner's common information. We also provide a new converse result (lower bound) in this correspondence for the R\'enyi common information with order . Numerical results show that for doubly symmetric binary sources, the new upper and lower bounds coincide for the order and they are both strictly larger than Wyner's common information for this case.
