Exploiting the Massey Gap

In this paper, we find new refinements to the Massey inequality, which relates the Shannon and guessing entropies, introducing a new concept: the Massey gap. By shrinking the Massey gap, we improve all previous work without introducing any new parameters, providing closed-form strict refinements, as...

description In this paper, we find new refinements to the Massey inequality, which relates the Shannon and guessing entropies, introducing a new concept: the Massey gap. By shrinking the Massey gap, we improve all previous work without introducing any new parameters, providing closed-form strict refinements, as well as a numerical procedure improving them even further.
