A short note on the joint entropy of n/2-wise independence
In this note, we prove a tight lower bound on the joint entropy of
unbiased Bernoulli random variables which are -wise independent. For
general -wise independence, we give new lower bounds by adapting Navon and
Samorodnitsky's Fourier proof of the `LP bound' on error correcting codes. This
counts as partial progress on a problem asked by Gavinsky and Pudl\'ak.Comment: 6 pages, some errors fixe
