Abstract

Chang s lemma is a useful tool in additive combinatorics and the analysis of Boolean functions. Here we give an elementary proof using entropy. We obtain a tight constant and give a slight improvement in the case where the variables are highly biased. © 2014 Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics.
