We prove the Courtade-Kumar conjecture, which states that the mutual information between any Boolean function of an $n$-dimensional vector of independent and identically distributed inputs to a memoryless binary symmetric channel and the…

We prove the Courtade-Kumar conjecture, for several classes of n-dimensional Boolean functions, for all $n \geq 2$ and for all values of the error probability of the binary symmetric channel, $0 \leq p \leq 1/2$. This conjecture states that…

We consider the Courtade-Kumar most informative Boolean function conjecture for balanced functions, as well as a conjecture by Li and M\'edard that dictatorship functions also maximize the $L^\alpha$ norm of $T_pf$ for $1\leq\alpha\leq2$…

We prove the Courtade-Kumar conjecture, for certain classes of $n$-dimensional Boolean functions, $\forall n\geq 2$ and for all values of the error probability of the binary symmetric channel, $\forall 0 \leq p \leq \frac{1}{2}$. Let…

We prove the "Most informative boolean function" conjecture of Courtade and Kumar for high noise $\epsilon \ge 1/2 - \delta$, for some absolute constant $\delta > 0$. Namely, if $X$ is uniformly distributed in $\{0,1\}^n$ and $Y$ is…

Let $0 < \epsilon < 1/2$ be a noise parameter, and let $T_{\epsilon}$ be the noise operator acting on functions on the boolean cube $\{0,1\}^n$. Let $f$ be a nonnegative function on $\{0,1\}^n$. We upper bound the entropy of $T_{\epsilon}…

Let $X^n$ be a uniformly distributed $n$-dimensional binary vector, and $Y^n$ be the result of passing $X^n$ through a binary symmetric channel (BSC) with crossover probability $\alpha$. A recent conjecture postulated by Courtade and Kumar…

Suppose $X$ is a uniformly distributed $n$-dimensional binary vector and $Y$ is obtained by passing $X$ through a binary symmetric channel with crossover probability $\alpha$. A recent conjecture by Courtade and Kumar postulates that…

Suppose $Y^{n}$ is obtained by observing a uniform Bernoulli random vector $X^{n}$ through a binary symmetric channel. Courtade and Kumar asked how large the mutual information between $Y^{n}$ and a Boolean function $\mathsf{b}(X^{n})$…

In 2013, Courtade and Kumar posed the following problem: Let $\boldsymbol{x} \sim \{\pm 1\}^n$ be uniformly random, and form $\boldsymbol{y} \sim \{\pm 1\}^n$ by negating each bit of $\boldsymbol{x}$ independently with probability $\alpha$.…

We introduce a simply stated conjecture regarding the maximum mutual information a Boolean function can reveal about noisy inputs. Specifically, let $X^n$ be i.i.d. Bernoulli(1/2), and let $Y^n$ be the result of passing $X^n$ through a…

Given a convex function $\Phi:[0,1]\to\mathbb{R}$, the $\Phi$-stability of a Boolean function $f$ is defined as $\mathbb{E}[\Phi(T_{\rho}f(\mathbf{X}))]$, where $\mathbf{X}$ is a random vector uniformly distributed on the discrete cube…

We study functions on the infinite-dimensional Hamming cube $\{-1,1\}^\infty$, in particular Boolean functions into $\{-1,1\}$, generalising results on analysis of Boolean functions on $\{-1,1\}^n$ for $n\in\mathbb{N}$. The notion of noise…

Suppose $\XX{N}$ is a uniformly distributed $N$-dimensional binary vector and $\YY{N}$ is obtained by passing $\XX{N}$ through a binary symmetric channel with crossover probability $\alpha$. Recently, Courtade and Kumar postulates that…

The optimal rate of reliable communication over a quantum channel can be enhanced by pre-shared entanglement. Whereas the enhancement may be unbounded in infinite-dimensional settings even when the input power is constrained, a…

In this paper, we investigate the quantization of the output of a binary input discrete memoryless channel that maximizing the mutual information between the input and the quantized output under an entropy-constrained of the quantized…

Recently we find several candidates of quantum algorithms that may be implementable in near-term devices for estimating the amplitude of a given quantum state, which is a core sub- routine in various computing tasks such as the Monte Carlo…

We study the maximum achievable differential entropy at the output of a system assigning to each input X the sum X+N, with N a given noise with probability law absolutely continuous with respect to the Lebesgue measure and where the input…

We consider a variant of the classical notion of noise on the Boolean hypercube which gives rise to a new approach to inequalities regarding noise stability. We use this approach to give a new proof of the Majority is Stablest theorem by…

Entanglement and entanglement-assisted are useful resources to enhance the mutual information of the Pauli channels, when the noise on consecutive uses of the channel has some partial correlations. In this Paper, we study…
