  • Abstract
    We obtain the strong data processing constant for sums of real-valued i.i.d. random variables by means of a very simple information-theoretic proof. As a corollary, we recover a classical result concerning the maximal correlation between sums of a sequence of real-valued i.i.d. random variables.
