Proving an exponential sum inequality for symmetric Hamming distance sequences in binary vectors
Background: Let $X = \{0,1\}^k$ represent the set of all binary vectors of length $k$. For two binary vectors $x, y \in X$, the Hamming distance $d_H(x, y)$ is defined as the number of positions where ...

additive discrepancy under a multiplicative constraint
Consider four sequences of numbers, $0 \le a_i, b_i, c_i, d_i \le 1$, suppose they satisfy the following constraints:
(1). $\sum_{i=1}^K a_i \ge 1/2 + \epsilon$;
(2). $\sum_{i=1}^K d_i \le 1/2 - \...
