Bounding a binomial coefficient using the binary entropy function
I'm reading that recent paper on a new bound for diagonal Ramsey and am stuck at the attached "Fact 12.1", which is "standard".
Could anyone please point me to a source for this ...

A conjecture on 'truncated joint moments' of binomial coefficients under binomial distribution
This is similar in spirit to Sum of squares of middle binomial sums or 'Truncated mean' of binomial coefficients under binomial distribution but gives some total estimates. Though the other ...

Sum of squares of middle binomial sums or 'Truncated mean' of binomial coefficients under binomial distribution
$\mu=1+\epsilon$ where $\epsilon>0$ holds.
1.Is there a good bound for $$T=\frac{\sum_{i=-\sqrt{\mu n\ln n}}^{\sqrt{\mu n\ln n}}\binom{n}{\frac n2 +i}^2}{2^n}?$$
This quantity can be ...

Tight sublinear estimates for a triple partial binomial summation
Is there tight estimates for the following logarithmic summation ($\gamma,\gamma'\in(0,1)$ and $\mu,\mu'>0$)
$$\log_2\Bigg(\sum_{t=\frac{n^{}}2-n^\gamma\sqrt{\mu\ln n}}^{\frac{n^{}}2+n^\gamma\sqrt{...

Terminology and approximation to logarithm of a sum of products of binomial coefficients
Denote $$T(m)=\sum_{1\leq n_m\leq n_{m-1}\leq\dots\leq n_2\leq n_1\leq m}\prod_{i=1}^{m}\binom{n_i}{n_{i+1}}.$$
Is there a name for this kind of summation and is there a good estimate for $\ln T(m)$ ...

Interpolating asymptotic expression for logarithm of middle binomial sums
Define $S(k,2n)=\sum_{i=-k}^k\binom{2n}{n+i}$ at every $k\in\{0,\dots,n\}$.
We know $$\ln(S(\gamma\mbox{ } n^\gamma,2n))\asymp(2n\ln2-\frac12\ln\pi-\frac12\ln n)$$ at $\gamma\rightarrow0$ and $$\ln(S(...

Asymptotics of multinomial coefficients
Binomial coefficients have a well known asymptotics (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_coefficient#Bounds_and_asymptotic_formulas) given by $$\binom nk\sim\binom{n}{\frac{n}{2}} e^{-d^2/(2n)} \...
