  • Abstract
    The blowing-up lemma says that if the probability with respect to a product measure of a set A\\subseteq {cal X}^{n} ({cal X} finite, n large) is not exponentially small, then its l_{n} -neighborhood has probability almost one for some l_{n} = O(n) . Here an information-theoretic proof of the blowing-up lemma, generalizing it to continuous alphabets, is given.
