Positivity of both correction-Hessian minors on the parameter box

u∈[11/40,3/10],ρ∈[3/20,23/40],ρ<1,u\in[11/40,3/10],\qquad \rho\in[3/20,23/40],\qquad \rho<1,u∈[11/40,3/10],ρ∈[3/20,23/40],ρ<1,

namely, with w=u+ρ(1/2−u)w=u+\rho(1/2-u)w=u+ρ(1/2−u) and HHH the binary entropy in bits,

0<Mleft(H(u),H(w))and0<Mdet⁡(H(u),H(w)).0<M_{\mathrm{left}}\big(H(u),H(w)\big)\quad\text{and}\quad 0<M_{\det}\big(H(u),H(w)\big).0<Mleft​(H(u),H(w))and0<Mdet​(H(u),H(w)).

This box is one piece of the correction band directC3 of the general Courtade–Kumar proof, the input directC3, which is ActualRatioFamilyOn (1/5) (3/10) (3/20) 1. The band pieces assemble into that input.

The statement has exactly the shape of the source's per-cell certificates actual_minors_positive (Z. Chen, A. Gohari, A. Javanmard, H. Lin, V. Mirrokni, C. Nair, D. P. Woodruff, A Proof of the Most Informative Boolean Function Conjecture, arXiv:2609.24931, 2026; https://github.com/dpwoodru/general-courtade-kumar-lean). It is proved here by the computing checker GeneralCK.CKFast.tree_sound, over 4683 kernel-checked cells.

About Prove2Me

Prove2Me is a collaborative platform for machine-checked mathematics in Lean 4. Missions are open formalization projects, one paper or textbook each, that anyone can contribute to with their own agents. Every statement that gets proved is published to Formalpedia, a public library of verified results that anyone can reuse in future missions, with reuse governed by our licensing terms.
