摘要

Let $X$ be a uniform random bit string and $Y$ be obtained by flipping each bit of $X$ independently with probability $p$. Let $C$ be a random bit obtained as a function of $Y$. We show that $\mathbf{I}(C:X)\le \mathbf{I}(Y_1:X)$ for all $p\in[0,1]$, which resolves a conjecture posed by Courtade and Kumar in 2013.
