Sharp, nonasymptotic bounds are obtained for the relative entropy between the distributions of sampling with and without replacement from an urn with balls of $c\geq 2$ colors. Our bounds are asymptotically tight in certain regimes and,…
In quantum purity amplification, one is given $n$ copies of a noisy quantum state $\rho \in \mathbb{C}^{d \times d}$ and asked to prepare $k$ copies of its principal eigenstate $|v_d\rangle$. Several prior works have derived…
We propose a new family of regularized R\'enyi divergences parametrized not only by the order $\alpha$ but also by a variational function space. These new objects are defined by taking the infimal convolution of the standard R\'enyi…
We establish sharp rates for propagation of chaos in R\'enyi divergences for interacting diffusion systems at stationarity. Building upon the entropic hierarchy established in Lacker (2023), we show that under strong isoperimetry and weak…
This paper considers the problem of lossy compression for the computation of a function of two correlated sources, both of which are observed at the encoder. Due to presence of observation costs, the encoder is allowed to observe only…
