How statement and proof provenance work

The first chip identifies the source of the statement or construction; the second identifies the source of its local proof or verification.

  • Literature-sourced: the exact statement appears in a cited source; only wording and notation differ.
  • AI-adapted: a semantically identical restatement of literature-sourced material, modulo indexing, notation, and boundary cases adopted by the library.
  • AI-generated: a genuinely novel statement formulated by AI, with no source for the claim itself.

These labels describe origin, not correctness: citations and verification chips remain separate evidence.

Strong-interference information inequalities tensorize over product code inputs

Statement

Assume the strong-interference inequalities of Finite two-user interference channel and strong-interference regime. For independent random vectors X1n,X2n, pass each coordinate through independent uses of the channel. Then I(X1n;Y1n∣X2n)≤I(X1n;Y2n∣X2n),I(X2n;Y2n∣X1n)≤I(X2n;Y1n∣X1n).

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The finite interference channel in [F1], product-over-time channel uses, and independent input vectors X1n⊥X2n.

[F1]

Finite two-user interference channel and strong-interference regime: for each fixed input of one user and every law of the other, the corresponding single-letter output channel has the indicated mutual-information ordering.

[F2]

Finite conditional mutual information identities and equality: conditional mutual information is nonnegative.

[F3]

Finite entropy and mutual-information chain rules: finite mutual information obeys the chain rule used in the telescoping sum.

Proof

1.1F1F2F3givenalgebra

First fix x2n. Under this conditioning, Y1n and Y2n are product channels from X1n, with the ith channel determined by x2,i. Set An=Y2n, Bn=Y1n, and Ji=I(X1n;Ai,Bi+1n∣X2n=x2n) for i=0,…,n. The chain rule [F3] gives Ji−Ji−1=I(X1n;Ai∣Ai−1,Bi+1n,x2n)−I(X1n;Bi∣Ai−1,Bi+1n,x2n). Because the channel is memoryless across coordinates, each term reduces to the mutual information between X1,i and that coordinate's output conditional on the common context (Ai−1,Bi+1n,x2n). For each value of this context, [F1] applies to the induced law of X1,i and fixed x2,i, so Ji−Ji−1≥0. Summing over i yields I(X1n;Y2n∣X2n=x2n)≥I(X1n;Y1n∣X2n=x2n). Average over X2n.

Exchange the user indices and exchange Y1,Y2. The second strong-interference inequality in [F1] gives the same telescoping argument with receiver 1 as the more informative output for user 2. Averaging over X1n gives I(X2n;Y1n∣X1n)≥I(X2n;Y2n∣X1n).
