Researchers have established new bounds for the correlation gap under restricted independence, specifically addressing the case of n=4 and the worst-case scenario. For n=4, a universal 4/3 upper bound has been proven to hold, confirmed through a combination of theoretical analysis and AI-assisted computational verification. This proof involved techniques such as permutation symmetry, cone certificate systems, and recursive simplex subdivision. Additionally, the study demonstrates that the worst-case pairwise independent correlation gap can asymptotically reach $e/(e-1)$, matching the bound for mutual independence. This finding extends to t-wise independence for t>=2, indicating that pairwise independence can be as restrictive as mutual independence in certain situations. AI
